About the Product
The DALI SPEKTOR 2 packs a larger inner volume than the SPEKTOR 1 and thereby delivers an extra bass performance. Getting this much Hi-Fi performance from a speaker in this price range not only took all of our experience and knowhow, but also hours and hours spent in the listening room.
"By any standards, the Diamond 220s are musically-worthwhile speakers - and by budget standards, they're crackers." - Diamond 220, Hi-Fi World - Awarded 5 Globes

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
DALI Spektor 2 Bookshelf Speakers (Pair) (Black)
- Arived promptly and the sound is excellent for the size - they get even better over the first few hours.
- Stunning sound for their size and price. Really well done.
- These are lighter than my previous set. More airy and tight.
- Very nice, compact speakers. Have brought a whole new dimension to my AV system compared with the Kef Concords these replaced.
- They take a little while to run-in but are perfect speakers for my home set-up. Compact - great little performers.

What customers say about "Audio"
DALI Spektor 2 Bookshelf Speakers (Pair) (Black)
- These sound great. Sparkling upper trebles and crisp Bass.
- I have got to say that these speakers are excellent. Among the best I have ever heard. They add a smoothness and transparency to all genres of music.
- Lovely speakers, really rich warm sound, punchy bass when called for. Very solid construction.
- They do loose a little composure when i turn the volume all the way up.
- The sound quality wasn't as expected. The treble and mid-range were foggy and the bass not as well defined.

What customers say about "Features"
DALI Spektor 2 Bookshelf Speakers (Pair) (Black)
- Connections on the back feel good quality. I paired them with a set of Atacama stands and they look quite nice.
- High quality build and finish. Treble definition is outstanding.
- A magnificent sounding pair of speakers. Build quality is exquisite. They handle both vinyl and digital with equal clarity.
- The bass was strong and very present. Mid range was excellent, and overall they were very smooth warm from top to bottom.
- Warm, inviting mid-range and decent bass for a 5 1/4 inch woofer. It sounds bigger than its size would indicate.
