The HELICON MK2 Series

The MENTOR Series
According to the Oxford English Reference Dictionary, a mentor is “an experienced and trusted adviser.” This modern meaning originates in Homer’s epic Odyssey in which Mentor was the adviser of young Telemachus.
It is our intention that a system based on your selection of loudspeakers from the DALI MENTOR range will be your trusted companion for countless hours of listening pleasure for many years to come.
A large part of the secret behind the new MENTOR Series lies in DALI’s decades of experience and intimate knowledge of drivers, crossovers and real wood cabinets. Put simply, they know how to design and build these components for the finest possible sound quality, while at the same time reducing the demands they make on your amplifier.
While they make it sound easy, it requires total control over every aspect of research, development and production. And when they say every aspect, that is no exaggeration. The handsome, gold-plated dual bi-wiring/bi-amping screw terminals fitted to every MENTOR model are designed by DALI. Even the screws that attach the drivers to the thick MDF front baffles have been specially designed for this purpose.
This fanatical level of control is a major factor in achieving the more natural, refined and relaxed musical presentation that is the true definition of the MENTOR Series.
The MENTOR Series is developed, designed, hand-built, assembled and individually tested at the DALI factory in Denmark.The following models are available in the Mentor Series:

The IKON Series
The IKON series sets new standards for just how much real audio quality you can buy at an affordable price. Each model offers materials, technology and performance worthy of comparison well beyond their price range. New Solutions for Better Sound
The most eye-catching features of the IKON series are the woodfiber-reinforced cones in the specially-developed bass/midrange drivers and the hybrid high-frequency module that combines the virtues of dome and ribbon drivers for extremely wide dispersion and silky smooth, exceptionally airy high frequency response extending well beyond the audible range.
IKON cabinets are solid MDF structures for optimal rigidity and resonance damping. The front baffles are a two-layer sandwich construction joined with a special non-resonant adhesive. Two crossbeams minimize side panel vibration. Floor-standing models include screw-in spikes for rock-steady stability on any surface.
All four floor-standing IKON models share the same characteristic IKON virtues, so you can let the size of your room, your budget and your dynamic preferences decide which model is right for you.

The MOTIF Series
In the loudspeaker arena, a battle is raging. On the one hand, design-oriented brands hope that you will be so dazzled by a shiny, sexy exterior that you forgive the mediocre sound on offer. Then there are performance-oriented brands that expect you to clutter your living space with large boxes as the price of admission for a thrilling, realistic viewing and listening experience.
Meanwhile, in a brave new world of ultra-flat, wall-mounted TV screens, most of us dream of invisible audio systems that present music and movies out of thin air, as if by magic. Unfortunately, when we awake from that impossible dream, hard choices have to be made in the real world.
We are typically forced to choose between appearance and performance and all too often, style wins out at the expense of substance, as sound quality is unceremoniously sacrificed on the altar of design.
But it doesn't have to be that way anymore. At DALI, they refuse to accept the conflict between appearance and performance and all the compromises that entails. Rising to the challenge, they envisioned a loudspeaker that would be as pleasing to the eye as it is to the ear, an elegant work of art of minimal dimensions, yet capable of big, no-compromise sound for your entire stereo and surround needs.Now, with DALI MOTIF, you really can have it both ways.
DALI MOTIF is the ideal fusion of art and science, combining aspirational levels of creativity, imagination and vision to match their technical skills and expertise in the fields of acoustics and furniture making.
It should come as no surprise that this breakthrough concept is brought to you by DALI. After all, throughout their 25-year history of creating and engineering high-performance loudspeakers in Scandinavia, they have become attuned to the needs and wishes of perhaps the most style-conscious people in the world.
DALI MOTIF is what happens when you think outside the box.
