About DALI - Zensor 1

What Hi-Fi?

Internal braces eliminate structural resonance. Inside, acoustic damping material strategically placed inside both optimizes timing and produces increased midrange attack as well as accurate low-end responsiveness. For the crowning touch, solid aluminum accents supplement the high-gloss
