Dellichord FR6, Australian made Isobaric Bookshelf speaker

At Carlton Audio Visual we have a long history of supporting Australian made Hifi so we jumped at the chance to add another promising Australian made speaker to our inventory.

And these are an impressive little speaker. The goal was a large ‘full-range’ sound, with accuracy and detail. Also high on the ‘to-do’ list was an ability to perform well in difficult acoustic spaces and create a very easy to listen to sound in these acoustically ‘normal’ rooms.

They use an Isobaric design which means it has a compound driver array with a big passive radiator on the back for incredible bass extension. The unusual design allows the bookshelf speaker to reach low frequencies that should only be possible with $15K Floorstanding speakers. The low frequency extension from these compact thirty somethung centimetre boxes has the listener instore immediately looking for the hidden subwoofer. You have to look at a seriously fiscal Dynaudio Confidence or Sonus faber Homage to get that kind of low frequency reproduction from a speaker of this size from imported product ... those are $20K plus designs ....!

No we are not saying that these are better than those loudspeakers ... but this unique isobaric design does some things extraordinarily well.

They offer an open slightly diffuse midrange that portrays a very wide soundstage. It does not have the explicit midrange presence of so many tweaked and bright imported designs but also lacs that fatigue factor that is endemic to those designs.

Soundstage on these is also impressive. Very wide and capable of filling a large space without the necessity of a critical listening position .. you dont need to have your head centimetrically placed to hear all the music. .

Bear in mind though, these little speakers are $4999 which is a neat price for the tricks these speakers execute. Of course if you triple your budget you can get a better speaker but these will put smiles on many faces for under $5k.
