Review of the floorstanding speaker in Hobby HiFi, issue 1/2000: The Dirac's well balanced tuning is confirmed by a pleasant and natural sound projection. Vocals and instruments sound extremely realistic, showing a slight tendency towards warmth. The bass is powerful and dynamic, but by no means exaggerated."...After successful burn-in the Dirac proves to be a speaker with precise attack, powerful and clear bass, voluminous mid frequencies and crystal clear tops. The precisely staggered instruments give the impression of a wide stage." The Alcone Dirac is also available as a compact version 44x19x30cm (left) or as centre speaker for surround sound systems (below right).
Technical Data:
The Dirac is well suited for surround sound systems because: - All Dirac speaker types have the same sound characteristics - Effect / satellite differ from front speakers only due to bass, that cannot be located anyway - The Dirac is a grown-up speaker with an excellent bass response - This series of speakers has an excellent price / performance ratio (many reviews in Klang+Ton) and the front speakers' drivers are magnetically shielded Satellite, price per unit without cabinet: EUR 219,00
Centre, price per unit without cabinet: EUR 219,00
Special version of all Dirac types: Mundorf mono-wiring finished crossover with HT absorber circuit and circular standard terminal plate (description the same as Lagrange, except for mono-wiring crossover). Additional charge - not available per unit.
Our Surround hint: Should you have a lot of space, the floorstanding version can be combined with the centre - otherwise satellites throughout combined with the centre.
