High-end perfection, built by DALI

Elegant luxury cabinet
The EPIKORE 7 cabinet is the epitome of advanced high-end design. From the elegant, curved cabinet, real wood veneer and sumptuous piano-finish lacquering to the solid and inert enclosure, EPIKORE 7 is an aesthetic and acoustic masterpiece.
EVOLUTION THROUGH KORE TECHNOLOGY
Inheriting from a true masterpiece
The high-end, 3½-way EPIKORE 7 floorstander is the natural evolution of our acclaimed DALI EPICON range and inherits new technologies from our flagship DALI KORE loudspeaker. By combining the best of these exceptional speaker series, the EPIKORE 7 and the other models in the range deliver ultimate audio realism and luxurious craftsmanship that you have to experience to believe.
CRYSTAL-CLEAR HIGHS
DALI EVO-K™ Hybrid Tweeter module
Developed originally for the DALI KORE, our advanced DALI EVO-K Hybrid Tweeter module combines a large, in-house-developed 35 mm soft-dome tweeter and an improved version of our high-performance, wide-dispersion planar element. Feraturing extremely powerful neodymium magnet motor systems, they deliver smooth, effortless high frequencies and dynamics that let you experience the delicate ting of a triangle or the crash of a symbol just as it was recorded… at any volume.
NEW 7-INCH BASS/MIDRANGE DRIVER
SMC™ Gen-2 & Clarity Cone™ technology
The newly designed 7-inch EPIKORE 7 bass/midrange drivers are equipped with an exceptionally large and powerful magnet system featuring our patented SMC Gen-2 technology. Our signature paper & wood-fibre cone has also been enhanced with low-loss Clarity Cone technology to further dampen unwanted resonances. The result is an astonishing low-loss, low-distortion reproduction that brings you so close to the original recording, you can almost reach out and touch it.
LET THE BASS BREATHE
Continuous-flare bass reflex ports
The EPIKORE 7's continuous-flare bass reflex ports help the bass/midrange drivers deliver cleaner, deeper and more accurate bass for an even richer listening experience.
PRECISION AND ELEGANCE
High-end cabinet materials and design
The slim, luxurious form of the EPIKORE 7 cabinet is the epitome of advanced high-end design. From the elegant, curved edges and real-wood veneer to the sumptuous piano-finish lacquering in three exclusive high-gloss finishes, this elegant floorstanding speaker is an aesthetic and acoustic masterpiece that brings an extra touch of class to any room.

Reviewers at The Ear and The Absolute Sound praise its dynamics and SMC Gen-2 driver tech.

Sound Quality
94/100
Bass
95/100
Dual 7" woofers in a ported cabinet tuned to 30 Hz produce bold, deep low bass with a measured rise peaking around 90 Hz; reviewers describe powerful, room-filling low end though slightly 'rich'. Matches large-tower expectations.
Mid
92/100
Mids integrate well with harmonics and present natural timbre; reviewers note good percussive tone and subtle detailing rather than overt crystalline midrange resolution.
Treble
94/100
Hybrid planar + soft-dome tweeter yields transparent, clear high end with extended response and careful balancing for realistic listening positions; super-tweeter adds air above ~12 kHz per TAS.
Soundstage Imaging
95/100
Consistently praised for voluminous, wide and deep staging with precise instrument placement and excellent stereo imagery across reviews.
Dynamics
93/100
Speakers remain controlled at high SPL and retain detail at low levels; reviewers call them powerful, dynamic and well-behaved across volume ranges.

Build Quality
95/100
High-end finishes, curved internally braced cabinets, magnetised spikes, flared ports and advanced SMC driver tech underline excellent engineering and fit-and-finish.
Features Connectivity
80/100
Passive tower baseline applied. Bi-wire terminals and quality wire links are present (noted by reviewers) but passive-category scoring kept at the standard baseline.
Value for Money
76/100
Performance is high-end, but price (~$15,000) positions these as expensive; TAS frames the line as 'more affordable' vs ultra-high-end models, yet reviewers do not characterize these as exceptional value.
