Bookshelf Speakers
Nominal Impedance of the 4 Ohms means that the DALI KUPID is a difficult to drive speaker from nominal Impedance perspective, make sure that you choose an amplifier than can provide 4 Ohms for this speaker.
Many AVRs (audio/video receiver) in the market may have difficulty when the speakers dip below the 4 Ohms levels (this may cause clipping or even physical damage), so we recommend to not pair the DALI KUPID with an AVR but use an Integrated Amplifier instead.
Sensitivity
With a sensitivity level of only 83 dB, DALI KUPID is a difficult to drive speaker from Sensitivity perspective, make sure to choose an amplifier with a high output if you like listening to your music at high volume levels. You may especially have a hard time using Tube amplifiers which are traditionally very low power compared to Class A/B or Class D amps. Work out how loud the DALI KUPID plays in your room →
