Very linear, natural sound and no overboost of bass or tweeter. The speaker don´t give the music no nother charachter than original. First-Class manufactoring and in the age of more than 10 years ít sounds like just brought. And there´s no label "Made in China"

I never found.

It´s a long time ago, that i brought this wonderful speaker. First i had a MARANTZ PM-62 amplifier for use with this speaker. In 2003 up to 2008 they paused in my rooms. Now in 2008 i activated the DALI again, with a MUSIC HALL a50.2 amplifier. But the sound didn´t satisfied me at all, especially with very low volume. So i decided to change the amplfier. First i used an vintage Accuphase E-203 and it´s sounds warmer and with bigger volume. But this was not the last step. I changed to a great early label: LUXMAN. I brought a vintage LUXMAN C-03 / M-03 combination in top conditions. And my rusult: The LUX give this speaker the pressure they want! Nominal 3 watts from the M-03 is enough to take pleasure with the DALI 450 and i think it´s a great combination.

Most acoustical (jazz) music is really something they like. Very good at low levels, no loss of detail or soundstage. Good finish.

Some vocal music.

For 6 years I was quite happy with this loudspeaker. But in the end the middle range (especially some vocal) began to annoy me to a degree that caused me to buy something else (I still have them though). When I auditioned them they seemed to be the best sounding in the price range (listened to Infinity, KEF, Bose). I also listened to DALI 850 and they sounded ‘better’ but was to big both physical and economic, at the time.

Best buy! The bass is very tight and well defined, even with moderate amplifier-power (i have approximately 2x70 Watt). Tweeter and midrange are very clear and natural.These speakers fit well to a wide varity of music ("everything from Mozart to Metallica", my local dealer would say). In this price category, it´s almoast a reference-speaker

ovearall good balanced, musical, playing good with chip and more expensive amps and cd-s, bass of course,

for that price nothing, in comperation with more expensive (470) lacks "air" little bit because of treble limitation

For me and not only - Best-Buy (very resonable price in Poland). Still in very good condition in comparation with fresher product. Any time I hear a sound limitation I know - have to upgrade electronic.

These are great tower speakers.I got these because they sounded magnificent on the wide variety of music I listen to. I have them hooked up whit my NAD 314 amplifier. The best thing with these speakers is that they excells on all the areas that you could demand from any speaker above 800£.The mid-bass is great all voices sounds clear and human,The bass handling is also quite good you hear the bass more than you feel it. These speakers are gorgeous build whit Biwire terminals and a nice looking vener.

Never heard about Dali, but while I was auditioning some front speakers (Paradigm, NHT, Mirage, KEF, blah blah blah) for my system, I went over to this curious shop selling the Dali Speakers. The potpourri of instrumentation on the jazz album came out so distinctly and clearly, totally uncluttered. Really delighted with this find.

First: good design and finishingSecond: not expensive...
Third: or actually first - sound..

Good sound image, lot of details and BASS...

I wanted to give'em 4.5 but there's no such rate.

So let it be... 5

These really are some fine speakers!!! The sound is very clear and 'real', with perfect short bass. According to me one of the best speakers within their price range. (and must better then the JBL LX-750 I used before)
