Your attention to detail in reviewing this speaker is impeccable. I greatly appreciate photographing those drivers and cross over. Giving us detailed views of it. Thanks.
Much appreciated! Thank you for watching.
Probably the most comprehensive review on TH-cam, of any speakers. Much appreciated!
Much appreciated, thank you for watching.
I wonder where money is best spent; in the speaker drivers, crossovers, or cabinet quality?
Hi from Wales. Just bought these to replace my PMC 21 speakers. I loved them but these are on another level. Thanks for the review.
Great to hear! Welcome from Wales! Cheers
Good luck with your move. Excellent review
Thanks so much!
This review speaks the truth! Ive had many speakers from kef wharfedale b&w dynaudio atc and ive not heard anything like how the rubicon 2 presented lower frequencies with such fluidity. I really think its the smc unlocking more layers of detail and sense of ease & flow.
He there Mykeldg! You have put the Rubicon up against a number of would be performers...I agree with you, there's something to that SMC. Welcome to the channel!
Allright, thanks. Never seen it before…
amazing review!!! Good luck with the move my friend!!!
Thanks so much!
about time you got into the dali speakers They make some great speakers
Yes, yes they do.
The wood pulp cones are fairly unique. The only companies that I know of that use this material are Dali and JVC. Thanks for your very informative videos. Appreciated.
Thanks for watching!
Great Review! Thank You!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you John.
@@2ChannelListening If you worked at a place like Upscale Audio in California I would demand to have only you sell me something! The time and effort you put into a review is stellar.
Hmmn, I wonder how Kevin would feel about that :-)
Thank you for the nice compliment John, seriously appreciated.
Great review with great attention to detail. I bet these sound divine, in fact clips here on TH-cam suggest that. I'd love to hear your take on the Triangle Titus EZ. I just got a pair of these and think they're pretty special - $1000 over there but here I got an open box return for £550, a great deal.
Thank you Robert. I've taken a break from small stand mounts now that I am in my new home. I will have a review soon of the Philharmonica BMR v.2, yet, I doubt anyone would qualify them as a typical stand mount. They are rather large, being a three way design. Like the Rubicon, these BMR's have some serious special sauce thanks to the new Danish 6" driver. Thanks for watching.
Danish looks good! Oberon 1 the 2 might be too big for my little kitchen where i play bookshelves on the rega io and Fiio BTA30 dac bluetooth streamer i just use my phone as the source and slum it lol ...I am getting a pair of PSC Imagine XB speakers incoming and sold the B&W 607's that were meh. DALI Opticon 1 MK2 looks good as well.
Good choices all...no slumming, just enjoying! Thanks Penn.
I bought these a week ago for 1000 euro, they are absolutely amazing. I tested the low end and it player around 30hz, so not sure what those specs are about. They produce more bass then my previous Spektor 6 tower speakers.
Where did you buy them..
@@roybrolsbeakI bought them used
@@roybrolsbeak Hi, I thought I replied but maybe it didn't go through. I bought these used on an online used market in Ireland. No way you can find them for this price new.
@@Cantatos no not for a 1000 but i can get them for 1200 new. would you say the bass can be overwhelming sometimes? i have this with my oberon 5s a lot and dont want to experience it again.
@@roybrolsbeak Nice that's cheap. There is nothing overwhelming on these speakers, but I have a Marantz SR6015 with a lot of features to improve the sound. But I also have these running with a DALI E-12 F Subwoofer. There are a lot of reasons it can be overwhelming. The speakers are too close to the wall, no Acoustic treatment or the amp-dac combo isn't great or bad settings like loudness etc. These speakers have a lot of Bass but its pleasant and fast bass, not boomy or overwhelming but again it all depends on a lot of factors. I wouldn't blame the speakers (or even the Oberon 5's) if they are too much.
Shopping Epicons and Menuetto's I found your review of the Rubicons. I got an open box pair w/out stands and I really like them. The price has gone way up in a year. They remind me of my Bang and Olufson CX100s as they play everything well no regardless of the recording quality. Your review squares with my initial impressions. I am wondering how long it will take for them to break in and if they will open up a bit more. Thanks.
Usually a couple weeks with regular play, some bass heavy material. To this day they still have a unique sound I have not heard among many other bookshelf speakers. Enjoy and thank you for watching.
Just wait until you move up where they use a ribbon super tweeter along with the soft dome tweeter.
Rubicon 5, here I come!!! Eventually :-)
I am in doubt between the Dali Opticon 8 mk2 and the Focal 948.
This video made me think more of Dali.
If you have the opportunity to listen to both, no reason to pull a cold trigger. If you have no opportunity to listen to both...well....
Thank you for watching, good luck!
@@2ChannelListening not really. Few retailers (300+ km away) and they also do not have the models available.
@@MrHighDefinitionTube that is the challenge with trying to make a big decision on speakers. I have not heard the Focal 948, so not my place to speak about it. Good looking speaker though.
Hi Jason, great honest review as always. Having done the review of the Phil Bmr2, in what areas do you prefer it over the Dali. Was planning on buying bigger bookshelf in the future.
I have the Dali Oberon 1. While they are very good but I do find some sibilance and the tone a little on the brighter side though musical. How are the higher frequencies of the BMR2 monitors compared to the Rubicon with respect to listening fatigue ? Thank you very much.
Hello Kanchan, what I can say is I never get tired of the ribbon tweeter set up, be it the Fountek or Raal's that I have heard. They tend to be very open and detailed without the harshness. Now, as directly compared to the sweet 29mm unit on the Rubicon, they are really closely matched in air and detail, but I will still say that the Rubicon unit does edge a little brighter and if pushed hard for a good deal of time, "could" be less favorable compared to the BMR set up. Price for price, I would still go with the BMR v2 speakers.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks a lot for your quick reply. Really appreciate it and helps a lot in decision making especially when a brand is not available for demo 🙂🙏
I auditioned the R2 and they blew me away, when i got them home they were to strong for the bedroom office. I replaced them with DALI Menuet.
I later bought a pair of Rubicon 5 for the living room. The R2 & R5 sound almost identical but the R5s ribbon tweeter helps the dome tweeter spread its sound, which means you can slouch off axis and they still sound great. The bass from the R2 is more agile but its lacks the long bassline tones that you can hear in the R5. Also the R2 box resonates more than the bigger R5.
In oct I purchased a pair of R2 for the garage gym and made up with the sound they put out.
The Menuet are the same class of speaker as the Rubicon but theyre a smaller design ideal for my office; with a party wall adjoining the neighbour.
DALI make a Menuet SE variant with a superior crossover with Mundorf caps. The SE is the same speaker as the 2020 menuet apart from the XO.
I bought the upgrade and did a side by side comparison. The SE has better dynamics, pianos sound life like but this XO is less forgiving with poorly made recordings. Its the one to go for if you like orchestral recordings. The standard XO is tuned to acoustic guitars, you can hear the wood vibrate on some of Ben Howards songs. Its more forgiving over a wider spectrum of recordings/songs.
Ps could you send one to Richie over at GR Research to see what he can do to them.
Im in the UK which means i cant send mine.
I appreciate all the feedback Darren. I always wondered about the little Menuet, wanting them for a desktop system myself, rarely show up though. Sounds like you really love the R5, another speaker I want to audition specifically for that ribbon tweeter action. Thank you for watching and sharing. Cheers to the UK.
@@darrenlomax1283 I'm not for sending speakers out if I cannot do it myself, not worth the expense, plus I sold the Rubicon long ago.
@@2ChannelListening You did what?? I thought you really liked them.
@@darrenlomax1283 Lol, how do you think I keep this channel moving forward? The Rubicon 2's were not life long speakers...I doubt I will find those below the $3K line, but I keep listening!
Good review. Thou the sierra driver is a 6 inch as well. Interesting the bass was stronger in the Dali, seeing sierra is rated anechoic at 38hz.
Thanks Chris. These Dali are very conservatively rated. You are correct on the 2EX woofer.
@@2ChannelListening Paper style woofer for the win! Crazy how they are making a come back.
I have a 300 dollars pair of Dali Spektor 2. Absolutely the speakers to beat in that price range. and higher... I trust Dali and think they are n. 1.
Enjoy your new space you have suffered long enough...but hey, no pain no gain. 😎
Ha ha, I know, I sound like a Diva...I need to unleash the ZU!
Could you please do a live comparison of the
Totem Element Fire vs Dali Rubicon 2...I have the Dali Rubicon 2 in white gloss...they can be had here in Spain for 2,000€ I've tried many speakers and went to a hifi audio store to audition many others...to pair with my Marantz 40n...I still think I found the end game with the Marantz model 40n & Dali Rubicon 2... great with Music, TV and movies...such a beautiful full and open sound stage...don't have to play around with them...they just sound great and look great too!...I'm open to try anything that may be better so I thought you could say why you think the
Totem Element Fire is better...also I'm in search of a integrated TUBE Amplifier that is of great quality with HDMI input for arc and Airplay...
Hello Brian, a tube integrated with HDMI??? I'm going to go out on a limb and say they will never exist, not if you actually want a true point to point wired tube sound (which is the entire point) or you would be getting a heavily micro processed board and a mere tube buffer added on. Find a tube integrated you will really like and throw a HDMI protocol streamer in with it.
Regarding the comparison you are asking for...I am just a hobbyist with my little room, I do not own a shop. I have to sell something to get something with a few exceptions of borrowed equipment. The new Totem Fires had a massive price increase and I cannot wrap my head around them costing $7,500 now. While you can get the Rubicon 2 for $2,500 or less, take the deal and run. I do hope to get my hands on the new Signature One. I wish you luck!
@@2ChannelListening
Thanks for the reply and sugestión...I find your Chanel the best true audio source for me...I'm fairly new to hifi...my set up for now is Marantz model 40n, Dali Rubicon 2 on NorStone stands, Rel T7x sub and LG Oled TV...
The sound is great but I only wish the model 40n had more wattage output, perhaps it could squeeze out more performance on the Rubicon 2 ...hopefully the successor will have a more powerful amp built in...making it even more heavy to lift🤣
It's still pricey, but a better deal in Europe. Well worth considering at the less than 2000€ range for those living on this side of the Atlantic.
No doubt. Lots of gear I would like to try from across the pond.
No sound demo, so guess I'll have to take your word for it.
I'm just describing and reporting what I heard. Don't take my word for it.
Sound demo’s are for entertainment purposes only. How would you hear what he is hearing when it is recorded trough a microphone which adds another tone to the sound , and then you play it on your speakers which are most likely another brand/model in your room which has different acoustics.
Even if i record music from my stereo and upload it to youtube and then play it back over the same setup it sounds way way different and not in a good way. I tried recording with decent microphones like the Shure MV88 and MV88+ but even those did a poor job.
For almost 6 years I’ve got these Rubicon2. Together with Cambridge Audio Azur 851A amp and Azur 851N (modified) network player. I tried the Buchardt S400 mk2 as well a few weeks, but these sounded for me too ‘woolly’. I totally recognize the words with which you describe the Dali sound!
Have ever heard any B&W's? If so, how would these compare to the B&W "sound". I currently have CM8 s2's and am looking for something with a little more "brighter" tweeter. There claimed frequency response is 48 - 28 +-3db. vs the Dali which is 50 - 26,000 +-3db. Could this stand mount get close to our equal to a floorstander in frequency response. I also have Wharfedale 9.1's and they have a similar frequency response to the Dali (50Hz-24kHz, -6dB), but sound "thin" in the lower frequency area.
Greetings Dan,
I have owned and demoed a few pairs of B&W's in my time. I bought Monitor Audio RX8's over Gen I CM8's because I felt the RX8's were better balanced top to bottom to my taste.
I would say the Rubicon is still a smoother operator than the B&W house sound. While the Rubicon has a nice open top end, it manages to stay just below too hot. I think you might want to demo some Focal's. For instance, the Chora 806 has a 28 kHz top end. Plus, I believe Thomas at Thomas & Stereo, he likes bright sounding speakers and swears by Focal's. I cannot comment on Wharfedale sound, no experience with their modern products. Good luck in your hunt.
No Hz....ears...
hi...i have those speakers and like them too😁...i'm using them with 2 rel tx7 through gustard r26 dac and vincent sv- 737...I asked Dali if they were going to or could make a new standmount that has 2 extra drivers...like the epicon/rubicon 6 ...the the added ribbon tweeter and woofer...
I know it will be a tad larger but i'd prefer them on my stands...also can you give me a link to the isolation pucks on top of the speakers...thanksso much
Thank you for watching. The link for the stainless pucks are in the description notes. Good luck with Dali listening!
can i conclude that the older opticon 2 mk1 have received the same parts as the older rubicon ? they look very similair ..
To the best of my knowledge, they are the same tech, tweeter might be slightly different.
Will a Bluesound n330 be able to drive these at a good level?
I found these nearby used with stands sold by an audiophile for a very good price! However I do not own an amp and I need the amp to also have a streamer so I can use Spotify/Tidal connect and Chromecast. I also do have s tight budget and 113 USD is the max I can use on an amp.
Also the KEF LSX are going for 907 USD.
Truthfully, I do not know. I do not know your listening room size, musical tastes, how loud you like to listen. The N330 may be just enough, or it may fall short, I cannot tell you this. Plus I don't know of any amp I can recommend at less than $150. Sorry. My suggestion is to keep saving and make it really worth the wait!
@@2ChannelListening thank you do much for answering!
I went a bit over the budget and will try a Hegel H95. Hopefully this will be enough because I'm well over budget now. I will also try the NAD 388 just for comparison. On HiFi klubben the DALI Rubicon's are specifically mentioned in the page for Hegel H120, but that really is very expensive for me so idk.. if the ones ove ordered don't work I'll just save for that I guess
I tried a Cambridge axr100D, but I felt like there was absolutely no bass presence and that surprised me. I also felt like I needed a lot of volume with them and idk why but it just didn't sound good for me.
EDIT:I have a broad taste and like piano, classical music, rock (you know that emo-type with screaming) and I love big soundpictures that makes me feel russounded by music. Sometimes I also listen to more electronic music or instrumentals and I enjoy good pop music. I just want speakers that can do it all. I also listen to low volumes. Sometimes I play loud, but for the most part I want the speaker/amps to play well at very low listening volumes (close to minimum). As this is a big investment for me they will also be m y only speakers for years to come and will have to handle movies and TV aswell.
My budges was also 1113 and not 113 - I misspelled.
Nice ..what's the silver round things on top of speakers ? Thank you
Damping weights. Cheers.
Good speakers but for 3k i can get the R6 or the R8 as new here in Sweden. The R5 is a bit more laid back but more forgiving 😉
Cheers🍻
Fair enough. I would buy the bigger R6 too!
Thanks for the review!
I couldn't quite make it out in the video.. were those poly caps or electrolytic caps in the crossover?
Electrolytic
@@2ChannelListening well, if it sounds good, it sounds good.. but for the price 😬
@@tpn8402 For a little more I would go Totem Acoustic Signature One.
@@2ChannelListening I think my prejudice towards metal dome tweeters is too strong 🥲
Hello, what do you think is the best amp for Rubicon 2 ? Thanks.
I don’t believe in a best amp, it’s more or less what do you like best for your budget with the Rubicon? Rubicon sounds terrific with everything I connected. More power is a little better. You want brighter, go Rotel, you want neutral, go Naim. You want laid back with nice even tone, go Peachtree Nova. Endless possibilities
@@2ChannelListening Thanks for the advice. You helped me. If I may have another question. How powerful should the Rubicon 2's amplifier be in order for them to reach their potential?
@@vashchenko_konst753 Depends on your room size, listening distance and preferred playback levels. Do you sit mid-field and like it on the softer side of 80 db? You can get away with a nice 30 watt amp. Or, do you sit further back, say 10ft (3M) and like Fortissimo? You will want 150 watts of headroom at 8ohms to push the limits of the Rubicon 2.
@@2ChannelListening Got it, thanks again for your advice.
I don't know what you mean by better components! there's nothing wrong with the components in the crossover and the layout is correct what they did, yes you could change electrolytics for film capacitor but maybe the electrolytics sound better doesn't mean putting film capacitors is better they have an individual sound and maybe they sound better with electrolytics in that formation
Hi John, and I did segue right into how I felt there was no cause for concern with the crossover, these Rubes are clean, airy and pleasantly full sounding. I did not get hung up on the X-over. Thanks for watching and posting.
@@2ChannelListening заменить все конденсаторы и резисторы стоит - акустика этого достойна. Но она и как есть звучит очень хорошо, удивительно хорошо.
@@Pitterson7 Are you pointing me toward the Brzhifi TPA3255?

Hi Jason, Are these speaker stands Dali M601? How do you keep these speakers in place on these stands? TIA.
Hi Richard, yes, these were the matching M601 stands. I used small 3/16" half round, poly dots at the far corners. They were a generic brand, I could not tell you from whom.
Ciao. Potrebbe essere un buon abbinamento con Yamaha AS 2200? Oppure è troppo brillante in alto? Complimenti per la tua recensione. Saluti a tutti.

Rubicon 2 vs Buchardt s400
I have no access to the Buchardt s400. Sorry
How do they compare to Totem Fire???
Did you watch my Philharmonic BMR review? The Dail Rubicon became my #2 choice until the BMR. Still, the Totem are $6K, so for $2.5K US, the Rubicon's are an amazing looking and performing speaker that I would reach for again any day for musical enjoyment. Buy a second hand pair of Totem Fires for under $3K, and boy, you have a stand mount speaker that will shame so many floorstanding units.
@@2ChannelListening Sure did & used Fire's are what I'm considering but unable audition. Love the DALI sound though. So musical!
Why do you put doorstops on top of your speakers?
Because its way cheaper than these and others...edensoundaudio.com/shop/damping-disc-set-of-four/
I put them on my speakers because I am on a raised foundation floor, not concrete. There is additional vibration with the kind of flooring I am on. Look up Totem Acoustics Beaks.
Cool video review. Hello 👋🏼. I own a pair of these Dali Rubicon 2s, I paid £1368, & they work really well in my hifi system. I own a Yamaha AS-1100 Amp, a Audiolab m-dac +, also a Audiolab 6000cdt Transport. I really love the sound of these Speakers. To me they sound "perfect." Well, too my ears they do. Anyways, I've just subscribed to your channel. Sending my respect from the UK 🇬🇧. Stay safe. 🙏
Greetings James, I so apologize for what appears like an ignored comment. Not sure why this lingered in my "Held for Review" box, I check it every week. Thank you for the information, the subscribe and your passion for HiFi. Lover getting these notes from across the pond. Sounds like a great system you have. Much love for the Dali Rubicon's. *Thumbs Up*
Cheers!
Great price! We’re they new??
I need to hear speakers why does nobody do a recorded sound review with the same? Damn Mike?
Why do you think we all would use the same recording equipment? Have you made videos for YT? It’s not cheap nor do some of us like working for free with copyright issues. Just some feedback.
Liked this video in the first 30sek, just for the joke alone 👌
Lol, thank you, appreciate it!
@@2ChannelListening appreciated the following review, too
@@bardust thank you sir
Never understood expensive stands.
We certainly could expand that into several areas of our hobby, cables, room treatments, vibration control devices....
@@2ChannelListening $3k floorstanders is way more palatable to me than $2500 bookshelves and $500 stands.
I understand fully. Had I never heard the Totem Acoustic Fires, I would be even more puzzled. However, working with apartment space and wanting a speaker to disappear, your best choice still remains a really well build stand mount speaker. My little ZU's are overkill in this space. The Rubicon's make a lot of sense for this environment.
Have you sold the dalis?
Yes sir.
Thank you
ARE THEY SOUND BETTER THEN THE KEF R3?
It has been too long since I heard those KEF's and I wouldn't want to jump to that conclusion. However, if you are benchmarking the R3's, then you really must hear the Rubicon 2's if possible before committing.
Да, лучше
Yes easily.
Thank you for your review. What are those flying saucer thingies on the tops? Is that part of the speaker? But I see it on the amp too so I suspect it is not part of the speaker.
Thank you Mark. Those silver saucers are 1.6 lb door stoppers that do the same thing as expensive dampers. Just a little vibration control since we were on a third floor apartment building with nearly zero insulation and lousy floor structure.
@@2ChannelListening aha. Will keep that idea in mind.

When are you reviewing the Fynes?

I do not have any new models planned for Fyne.
'Musicality' and 'Organic'. Those are the descriptors you're supposed to use when you can't articulate a description. That and "magic."🤣
I myself personally stray from the reductionist approach with regards to components/name brands (nichicon, SEAS, etc). The final product's worth is the total synergy of sound and looks. If a no-name component delivers the desired electrical behaviour then who needs a Mundorf? Also if you buy from B&M stores, most times you'll get a discount.
You got me, I forgot to say Magic!!! I agree with you, Mundorf is a nice tag line to add to the price.
Who eats a Danish with a fork? 🤨
Lol, why not?
@@2ChannelListening Actually there's no reason why not. In fact, it makes perfect sense to eat it that way. If you're worried about messing up your makeup.
But as a man. I've always just grabbed foods like that (doughnuts, pastries, muffins, cookies, etc) with my hands, and shoved them into my pie hole. Then cleaned up the mess later. But to each his own I guess. 🤣🤣🤣

WOW !!! 2500 dollar speakers on stands ( Large Book Shelf ) With out stands ..Really moved up in the world. With that kinda money wouldn't you rather get a Pair Tekton Pendragons. I would. Wouldn't that be a better bang for the buck ? I rather get a full size speaker.. If I was moving into a new house.. Anyway. Good Luck with your move.
I mentioned twice that I got the whole package for $1,500. I also made myself very clear that I would not spend $3,000 retail on the package - I would get a $2K floor stander (used). Thanks for stopping by WFC and thank you for the well wishes! Cheers.
