Product Summary
The DALI IO-8 is a premium wireless over-ear headphone designed to deliver true high-fidelity sound whether listening wirelessly on the move or through a wired connection at home. Developed using the same acoustic principles as DALI’s loudspeakers, the IO-8 aims to bring a natural, detailed and engaging listening experience to personal audio.
At the core of the IO-8 is a custom 50 mm driver using a paper and wood fibre cone, a material DALI has long used in its speakers for its combination of low weight, rigidity and excellent self-damping. This helps the headphones reproduce music with clarity, strong dynamics and controlled bass.
Bluetooth connectivity supports high-quality wireless streaming with advanced codecs, while built-in Active Noise Cancellation helps reduce external noise during travel or commuting. The headphones can also be used via USB or a 3.5 mm analogue connection, allowing them to function even when the battery is depleted.
With premium materials including metal components, memory foam ear cushions and leather detailing, the IO-8 offers both long-term comfort and refined build quality suitable for extended listening sessions.
These are ex-demo headphones that have been very well cared for. They come in the original box with accessories.
