SIGNAL PATH
All EPICON speakers feature a dual
set of terminals on the back, allowing
for both bi-wiring and bi-amping. For
single-wiring/amping the speakers
come with a set of terminal links made
from gold-plated cupper for maximum
connectivity.
The sturdy gold-plated terminals are
DALI-designed. A design which has
been applied and refined in our high-
end series over the last many years.
They accept fork cable lugs, bare wire,
and banana plugs. The recess in which
the terminals are mounted has been
shaped to help guide the cable into the
terminals.
Inside the speaker the signal travels
through DALI’s proprietary Cordial
III cable, originally developed for the
DALI Megaline speaker. 37 strands,
each Ø 0.32mm, wound in 4 layers
(1+6+12+18) to achieve the best from
both worlds; solid core and stranded
cable, respectively.
A no-compromise cable with concentric
windings for superior mechanical stability,
and almost eliminating any micro-
induction effect within the individual
strands. The polyethylene isolator also
helps decrease dielectric absorption.
The Cordial III cable is applied in
all internal wiring, except for the
connection from crossover to the ribbon
tweeter. This connection is handled by
the Cordial I cable – a thinner cable
dedicated to the very high frequencies.
