Description
DALI PHANTOM E-50 In-Ceiling Speaker
The DALI PHANTOM E-50 is a compact 2-way architectural loudspeaker designed primarily for in-ceiling installation, while also supporting in-wall applications. Supplied as a pair, it delivers clear, well-defined audio and impressive bass performance for its compact size, making it an excellent choice for small-room stereo systems and rear-channel applications in larger home theatres.
The PHANTOM E-50 combines a 5¼-inch polypropylene low/mid-frequency driver with a 28 mm soft-dome tweeter. The low-loss polypropylene woofer is angled to improve directionality and sound staging, while the soft-dome tweeter provides smooth and detailed high-frequency reproduction.
With a frequency response of 58–25,000 Hz (±3 dB), 87 dB sensitivity, 8 Ω nominal impedance and a maximum SPL of 104 dB, the E-50 offers balanced performance from a discreet architectural format. DALI recommends amplifier power between 40 and 120 watts.
The PHANTOM E-50 incorporates DALI’s Wide Dispersion design philosophy, creating a larger listening sweet spot and helping maintain consistent sound for listeners positioned away from the speaker’s direct axis. Two adjustment switches allow the installer to fine-tune the speaker for off-axis listening conditions.
Its compact circular design, thin magnetic grille and easy-to-use dogleg mounting system allow the speaker to be installed discreetly and securely. The E-50 is particularly well suited to small rooms, multi-room audio, surround channels and discreet architectural installations.
