This track is a very good example of what sometimes I missing in the sub-bass part of the spectrum with the iO-12, and how the reproduction of this frequency, together with the mids that having very good weight and presence in the ST ---specially, for me, reproducing the sound of what is a...

Two reasons: 1) I already losing A LOT of money in last 7 months: first by selling my one year old Solitaire T (ST) when I buying and keeping the iO-12; then losing money again when buying the ST for second time and decide returning and keeping the iO-12; and now even losing more money because...

Not necessary. All that you need doing is going to the iO-12 product page in the Dali website, then scroll down to bottom to the "downloads" section. If there is a new firmware update, you will seeing this in that section with instructions for installing. If you don't see anything, is mean that...

For the people that use Apple devices and have some/big frustration with playback controls of the ST, a long time ago I buying (and recommending in this thread) this excellent BT remote for Apple devices by Satechi. The construction quality is excellent and the design is very nice and intuitive...

You aren’t the only person experiencing this, and this is why early in this thread I criticising several aspects of the ST but still saying “I love this imperfect child” because of others great aspects of this headphone. Selling my first (one year old) pair and returning the second pair 3...

Yes, this is true and one very unique and remarkable aspect of the ST. And BT HQ mode is offering a sound that is not only incredibly close with the fully passive mode (with 3.5mm cable) sound, but is actually not easy truly knowing when you're using one mode or the other. I don't know if you...

Here is a new review of the iO-12 that is very decent in its contents in comparison with other more typical mediocre 'reviews', and is nice that is a woman, not a man, that is writing the review. https://audiograde.uk/review/dali-io-12-headphones-review/

Now that I don't need thinking about returning the ST or not, because my decision is firm about keeping this headphone, is great not having need for comparing again and again tracks between the ST and the iO-12. I still want saying what I saying already more than one time: the difference in...

Because I'm very happy having the ST again, I forget testing the 3.5mm and USB-C cables for audio in last few days, but I testing now for being sure everything is working well. So, like I expecting, no problems there and is great hearing again, and corroborating again, the consistency in sound...

After 4 days again with the wonderful ST, I want mentioning a few things. Even when I don't comparing directly this time the ST and the iO-12 (because I'm selling my replacement iO-12 in new sealed condition), I must repeating again that people that don't know the iO-12, if they having the...

If someone in the European Union is have interest, I'm selling a brand new sealed pair of iO-12 that I receiving as replacement for my previous pair that developing a fault. I'm selling because I deciding buying again (third time!) the very more expensive T+A Solitaire T...

Hello. I'm selling a BRAND NEW SEALED pair of Dali iO-12 Wireless ANC headphones. I receiving this new pair as replacement for my previous pair that developing a fault. I'm selling because I buying already again (third time!) the T+A Solitaire T, a headphone that is very more expensive. I...

Ha!, this is a good comment. Maybe you are correct!! You are welcome. I think I knowing very well from the first time I comparing directly the ST with the iO-12. The one very specific thing for me personally (apart from excellent sound quality and very good comfort) is having, as much as is...

I think is obvious that for little more than one year I'm the best marketing director for the ST. Now, after very extensive negotiations, I have a new contract with more than double remuneration and fantastic extras. :)

So, I decide buying the ST for third time (!). This time I will not returning or selling (now or in near future) this excellent headphone that I always loving. Why buying again when losing money 3 times consecutively?: 1. Everybody that knowing about my love for the ST, they knowing that in my...

@jude Thank you for this video. I want thanking you specially for the types of questions you asking AND for really trying, as much as is possible, for keeping this complex topic more understandable. You conducting a very, very good interview, asking very relevant questions.

I doing the update, like you, and have still the same thing of the sound "pops" in the left earbud sometimes, but the isn't a real problem for me because I'm sure an update fixing this in the future. And the multipoint connection is something I'm also waiting in the update but I accepting...

Actually 4 months after release ASR (Audio Science Review), a reputable online forum, doing a review of the ML 5909 that even including measurements. And Darko, a very reputable reviewer, doing a VERY long podcast review (90 minutes approximately) of the ML 5909 after 7 months of release.

Modern amplifiers for several years, including some that are portable, are easily capable of driving vast majority of headphones. Like happening with several others aspects of audio, the debate of balanced vs unbalanced is very more often a case of snake oil.

From the article that you linking: “Theoretically, the differential drive delivers an increase in audio performance due to the doubling of the amp’s voltage slew rate (how quickly the amp responds to input signals), lower noise, and reduced crosstalk due to the elimination of the shared audio...

Is (very) possible that you will liking the sound more when activating the "bass" setting. BUT, if you give little time to this headphone (2-3 days), you maybe having a surprise discovering that the "hi-fi" setting is giving you a new sound that you don't anticipating and that you maybe will...

So, because I don't have my iO-12 now (and for few more days), and even when the P7 Wireless is very nice, I'm missing the more reference sound of my iO-12, so I decide using my excellent wired-only, very reference and now classic Sennheiser HD800. And because my 2021 MacBook Pro can driving...

The "general consensus" is not important/relevant. What is very more important/relevant is that the universe AND your subconscious mind is telling you that you must buying a pair of iO-12.

Today I don't have my iO-12 so I'm using my 7 years old B&W P7 Wireless (P7W) --- I never selling this headphone because I think is a classic and the sound, even when not reference, is still very good. By the way, my pair is looking like the first day I receiving, with beautiful design and...

Here is a track that is very good for testing correct acoustic guitar reproduction, and sibilance too. The iO-12 is reproducing the acoustic guitar masterfully including some instances of guitar harmonics sounds (the Solitaire T is very good here but just NOT so good like the Dalis). And about...
