The older version of the Dali iO-6 model is the main focus of Dali's unique approach to modern headphones. In terms of structure, the Dali iO-6 follows a classic dynamic headphone design, featuring powerful neodymium magnet systems within the drivers. These systems drive a 50mm cellulose diaphragm, a rare choice in today's headphones of similar class and construction. Dali's engineers believe that, even in over-ear headphones, paper provides the most natural and accurate sound reproduction.
Aside from the high-quality faux leather finish and memory foam-filled ear cushions, the headband adjustment deserves mentioning. Not only does it have a soft cushion, but the elasticity has been carefully selected to ensure a secure and comfortable fit between the earcups and the listener's head. It's impressive to see that the company has managed to strike the right balance even in their introductory product.
The claimed battery life of the model is up to 30 hours on a single charge, and the headphones offer a variety of wired and wireless connection options. The Bluetooth module supports aptX HD, a codec that promises high-resolution audio transmission with minimal compression. For those who prioritize the best possible audio quality, the headphones also provide a USB-C connector, allowing for both charging and digital signal input from a computer.
Another essential feature found in the Dali iO-6 headphones, as expected from any high-end wireless model, is active noise cancellation. It offers three operating modes: On, Off, and Transparency Mode. In Transparency Mode, the built-in microphones pick up and blend the surrounding sounds into the audio signal, enabling the user to hear the environment. The built-in 1100mAh battery provides up to 30 hours of uninterrupted headphone use on a single charge. The model is accompanied by a hard case for convenient storage and transportation.
