At High End Munich 2025, DALI has set a new benchmark in audio engineering with the launch of the V-16F, its most powerful flagship subwoofer to date. Designed without compromise, this subwoofer promises to deliver ceiling-shaking bass for the largest rooms while maintaining the precision and control required for audiophile-grade music and home theater systems.

The Ultimate Bass Experience

Bass is the heartbeat of both music and movies, from the explosive sub-drops in cinematic blockbusters to the rhythmic pulse of a kick drum or double bass in a symphony. The V-16F is engineered to reproduce this vital element with unparalleled power and finesse. Featuring a 16-inch driver with a Constant Surface Surround (CSS) and a 1500W Class-D amplifier (peaking at 2500W), the V-16F delivers deep, detailed bass down to 19 Hz with minimal distortion.

Whether filling expansive home theaters or enhancing intimate listening rooms, the V-16F combines dynamic range, pitch accuracy, and speed without tonal coloration. Its 90-liter cabinet, four continuous flare reflex ports tuned to 18 Hz, and advanced features like Room Mode Attenuation and Constant Group Delay ensure seamless integration with any audio setup.

A Response to Growing Demand

This launch comes at a time when high-end home theater systems are gaining popularity, with audiophiles and cinephiles seeking immersive audio experiences that rival professional venues.

The continued success of our home cinema range has driven demand for a flagship subwoofer to meet the needs of movie and music fans that demand the very best in low-end frequency response, said Michael Munch, CI Business Development Manager at DALI. We see an increase in adoption of home cinema set-ups across Europe, and we’re pleased to be raising the bar in the high-end home cinema sound sector.

Key Features of the DALI V-16F

  • Wideband, Low-Loss Design: Ultra-low harmonic and non-harmonic distortion for clean, accurate bass.
  • Extended Bandwidth: In-room response down to -3 dB at 19 Hz.
  • 16-Inch Driver: Largest-ever CSS rubber surround with ±16 mm linear travel and 70 mm peak-to-peak excursion.
  • Powerful Amplification: 1500W continuous, 2500W peak Class-D power.
  • Advanced Modes: Room Mode Attenuation, Leader/Follower, and Constant Group Delay for tailored performance.
  • Robust Build: 53.15 kg, 90-liter cabinet for stability and resonance control.

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
