The Teufel Theater set was awesome when it comes to home theater sound. Only bother me in stereo mode but at higher levels the very dominant tweeter. For 4 years the transducer from a Pioneer SC-LX 71 are supplied AV receiver with power. There I was able to thank God the heights Lower separately, which is what I did and by 2 dB. The result was audible, unfortunately, the home theater sound. What the stereo benefited from the home theater sound was not conducive. Since the level lowering took place linearly over all channels, the sound from the center was 5.1 and then 7.1 operating matt and little detail. So had to be something new sooner or later.
It started with the Center. Since I had to line-up due to the living room remodeling the center below the TV's set up, bothered the bracket Devil Centers, as it projected into the image. At least now I had to act. While browsing on the homepage of my favorite consumer electronics dealer (no hypermarket chain) then I came for the first time in the name DALI.
Hinge test drive belongs to censor vocal Center purchased, connected, heard and enjoyed. Very good voice reproduction, homogenous sound, even in multi-channel music business not too dominant, yet punchy. Great sound for a small budget. Another advantage - there is the censor-row with white high-gloss surface. While this was not the main reason to buy, but fit well into the stuff that I've let my devil in high-gloss white foiling.
Then should ran the surround speakers Next. The Devil Surrounds are dipoles. Dipoles are still more of a relic of Dolby Surround Prologic times when a diffuse background sound was desired. In digital mode, the rear channels are separated from each. A localization ability is definitely desired. Therefore here is the use as direct sound meaningful. Although the devil by means of switches can also be used as direct emitters, but I wanted to try the DALI-censor to also because it has the Centre indeed already done to me.
Ordered and to know what they can afford, without further ado heard only once as a main speaker rather than the devil M220 F sample. I was completely blown away. No annoying heights, an over all levels across homogenous sound. Very detailed and even at volumes that are to settle close to a sudden loss of hearing distorted in any way. Property then times the subwoofer turned off - hard to believe what these small parts on bass. Of course, not to be compared with the operation with a subwoofer, but surprisingly good. The chassis fill the entire room with a large soundstage. Traut to these small packages not to. Our living room measures approximately 32 square meters, the whole room was filled with enjoyable music. In the home theater operation, the effects are very voluminous and detailed. Did they then exchanged their ultimate payment application according to the Devil Surrounds. Again, the censor can convince 1 in all positions. The aircraft is now flying from front left to rear right and not somewhere to the rear.
The boxes make a quality impression, are surprisingly heavy for size, see without bars by the red-colored membrane of the woofer / mid-also very good. Who does not like, but can also use the supplied black covers.
Conclusion:
I am simply thrilled with the small power packs. They are also easily used as a main speaker with a clear conscience. As surround LS they are outstanding. Since I now still the devil M220 F use as a main speaker and thus the height problem is still not resolved, I will decide with probably the censor 3 as new main speakers. There, the same mid / woofer is we built into the censor 5, which should again be additional pressure. In addition, higher levels should be even more easily possible, since the membrane is subjected to less stress.
Pro:
+ Quality workmanship, which underlines the weight of 6.3 kg

- Can been really find anything negative to it
Unrestricted buy recommendation ... and to get to the headline. It's art. Such valued speaker so to get a tight budget - because you have to access. By the way - Art wins yes usually over time in value. Who knows ...?
