Description
The DALI Oberon On-Wall is a slim and discreet speaker that delivers impressive power despite its compact form. Featuring the same 29mm soft dome tweeter and 5¼-inch woofer as its smaller siblings, it utilises DALI’s innovative down-firing bass port system to produce rich low-end performance without the need for a bulky cabinet. This unique combination of technologies allows the Oberon On-Wall to deliver precise, engaging audio that rivals much larger speakers, making it a perfect choice for wall-mounted stereo systems or multimedia surround-sound setups.

Dali Oberon On-Wall Key Features
- Patented SMC – The woofer magnet’s iron pole-piece includes a patented SMC disc that greatly reduces mechanical distortion for a relaxed midrange and lots of detail
- Contemporary Design – The rounded edges and grille fabric add a lighter and more contemporary look, enhanced by the elegantly shaped aluminium base on the floor-standing models
- Wood Fibre Cones – The stiff, lightweight structure of the reinforced wood fibre cone reproduces details that are uncoloured and highly accurate
- Easy to Position – The wide dispersion pattern of the drivers ensures well-integrated sound that drastically reduces off-axis harmonic distortion
Benefits of Dali Oberon On-Wall Speaker
Perfecting stereo & surround sound
With the OBERON ON-WALL, Dali has combined the best elements from the existing speaker range to create an on-wall speaker that delivers on audio quality, looks and versatility. The unique down-firing bass port design lets the OBERON ON-WALL use the wall to extend the bass performance, making it the perfect choice for both stereo and surround-sound setups. It’s very easy to integrate the speaker into any room, as the driver materials and geometry create a wide dispersion pattern in the listening area, so you can experience well-integrated sound, even off-axis.
Optimised with new wood fibre-structure
The 5¼” low-loss woofer used in the OBERON ON-WALL has been optimised with a new wood fibre structured cone dedicated to reproducing the delicate midrange and bass frequency area. Constructed from a blend of fine-grain paper pulp reinforced with wood fibres, the woofer has a stiff, yet lightweight structure. And when combined with the low-loss surround and spider suspension, the OBERON ON-WALL woofer reproduces the most minute details in the signal, unfiltered and with high accuracy.
DALI’s patented SMC reduces distortion
The use of SMC (Soft Magnetic Composite) in the OBERON 1 greatly reduces mechanical distortion caused by hysteresis and eddy currents. The result is a magnet motor system with a drastic reduction in third-order distortion, which allows the OBERON 1 to deliver extended listening pleasure, a relaxed midrange and a surprising amount of detailing in its class.
Oversized soft dome
The oversized 29 mm ultra-lightweight soft dome tweeter was specifically developed for the OBERON series, combining well-proven technologies from our existing DALI ranges with new features. The large membrane size generates higher sound pressure with less excursion, keeping the voice-coil motion to a controlled minimum. The tweeter front plate near the dome has been designed with similar geometry to the OPTICON and RUBICON tweeters to create the best possible working conditions for the soft dome. The result is extended frequency response, wide dispersion and low colouration.
Optimised cabinet
The OBERON ON-WALL cabinet is constructed from a high-density, CNC-machined MDF board dressed in high-grade vinyl. The extremely rigid structure is achieved with solid bracings across the inside of the cabinet, which practically eliminates cabinet resonance. To optimise the timing, the speaker is fitted with acoustic damping material internally along the sides, top and bottom. This creates a more direct contact between the woofer and bass port, which delivers more precise bass and increased midrange attack.
Utilise the wall to extend bass performance
With its unique bass port design, the OBERON ON-WALL takes things to a whole new level. Originally introduced in the DALI RUBICON LCR, the OBERON ON-WALL bass ports fire downwards, allowing the ports and the wall to work together to extend the bass reproduction far beyond what would otherwise be possible from such a compact cabinet.
