Product Overview

DALI SPEKTOR 2 is the larger of two entry-level bookshelf loudspeakers in the company's SPEKTOR-series, which brings the experience of HiFi to more price-sensitive consumers.
The SPEKTOR series features soft dome tweeter and wood fiber cone woofer: Both drivers weigh less than similar drivers in this price bracket, offering superior frequency response, wider dispersion, and reduced coloration. All speakers are of 2-way bass reflex design.
Other models in the SPEKTOR series include a smaller bookshelf speaker, SPEKTOR 1, a floorstander, SPEKTOR 6, and a center channel, SPEKTOR VOKAL.

External Reviews

Reviewer score 84% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from t3 have found:
The Dali Spektor 2 are one of the best passive speakers on the market. Despite having no dedicated sub, the bass performance is impressive too, delivering just the right amount to keep things crisp. Given their relatively small size, they can easily fill a large room with more volume than you’re ever likely to need.
Pros
  • Sleek design
  • Excellent sound quality
  • Great build quality
Cons
  • No dedicated sub
  • No built-in amp

Reviewers from techhive have found:
The DALI Spektor 2 compact speakers deliver a powerful punch for their size and price. Many listeners will find them a perfect listening option for a small space. While they offer exceptional detail at low volumes, they can shake the rafters without distorting when the volume gets cranked.
Pros
  • Wide sound dispersion
  • Wide sound range
  • Compact design
Cons
  • Noisy at low volumes

whathifi[3]

Reviewer score 75% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from whathifi have found:
Dali's Spektor 2s have a full-bodied yet balanced presentation. Sound is fluid and expressive, handling both large-scale swings and low-level subtleties with equal skill. Big hitters in this part of the market are the £160 Mission LX2s and Q Acoustics' 3020s.
Pros
  • Impressive build quality
  • Impressive dynamics
Cons
  • Poor power delivery
  • Poor build quality
