Can we expect to see new colours to come out in the near future for the io-12?

Hello, at this moment, we don't currently have plans to produce more colours for the io-12.

Will Dali make 4.4mm balance cable for this headphone.

The theory sounds good, but my measurements show relatively high distortion in the bass for the IO-12 (typical for drivers used in ANC headphones). However, the IO-12 drivers sound far better than e.g. the IO-6 drivers, so there is some ground for these statements. The better biocellulose drivers (e.g. in Denon and Fostex wired headphones, especially the 1T ones, not the 1.5T ) sound at another level than the IO-12 drivers in passive mode (OK, it's hard to compare, since the baffles, the loading and the acoustic environment are different). Many electrostatic drivers are several levels up. So I cannot take these claims seriously. But I think if Dali is able to further improve on these drivers / casings, they have the potential to approach these far more.

Hello. Thank you for your findings and comments. The SMC magnet system used in the IO-12 mainly improves and lowers distortion from approximately 1kHz and upwards. If you go to our website and download the IO-12 whitepaper on the IO-12 product page it will describe the technology more in detail.

Have you compared them with denon d7200 or d9200?

@@RX-rd4sc yes, both. It's closer to the D7200, as the D9200 has its slightly different character, IMHO both sound more smooth than the IO-12, in passive mode, and still sound better than the IO-12 in active mode (both with NC and without), but YMMV. Overall the IO-12 is far more convenient, with a lot more features, and it's the first ANC headphones to get any close to good closed backs.

@@zorqis thank you i thought that i should upgrade from d7200 to io-12 as they stated that its more detailed and like estats And also have you heard sony mdr-z1r and compared it with d7200?

@@RX-rd4sc you will like the change from the D7200 to the IO-12 (but IF Denon made it ANC, I think they would be the winners). To the Z1r I gave many chances, I never liked it. The IO-12 is a safe bet.
