• Recommended for Rooms 10 - 20m² (108-215 feet squared)

Product Description: 

The Diptyque DP85 delivers exceptional sound from the brand's smallest flat speaker, offering the transparency and refinement found in their top-tier models within a sleek and unobtrusive design. It features a 0.132m² low-midrange cell based on the exclusive optimized PPBM principle, paired with a 30 cm ribbon tweeter. The mechanical sandwich structure, inherited from the Reference model, ensures robust and precise sound performance.

When paired with a quality amplifier, the DP85 creates a high-fidelity system that provides a deeply emotional listening experience. Much like premium HiFi planar headphones, this speaker is perfect for music lovers who desire natural sound without coloration. Despite its compact size, the DP85 fills moderate-sized rooms with the fullness and magic typically reserved for larger isodynamic panels.

Technology

For over 30 years, Diptyque has been dedicated to delivering high-quality sound reproduction. Through extensive listening, comparison, and experimentation with a wide range of speaker technologies—electrodynamics, high-efficiency models, electrostatics, various ribbon forms, and rigid flat diaphragm speakers—they have gained deep insight into each system's unique strengths. While all these technologies offer undeniable benefits, they firmly believe that isodynamic loudspeakers, also known as magnetostatics, combine the most advantages, providing the most natural and lifelike musical reproduction.

The Advantages of Isodynamic Technology

• Diffusion over a large area by plane wave, which allows for immersive listening without sound projection effect.
• Dipole operation, on both sides of the speakers, to recreate the spatialization of the concert in your listening room.
• The use of extremely thin mylar membranes for high speed and no drag effect.
• The same type of diaphragm used from bass to treble, everything works at the same speed which provides consistency in dynamic behavior across the spectrum.
• No box behind the speaker; there is no "box sound" associated with the midrange buzz in the speaker. The timbres of the voices and instruments are perfectly respected.
• Consistent, balanced and detailed listening even at low levels.
• A regular impedance which does not represent a complex load on the amplifier.
• High reliability over time, Diptyque speakers are not afraid of dust or humidity, they do not have a high voltage circuit.

Exclusive Diptyque Technologies

The isodynamic technology well known to music lovers was developed in 1970 in the United States. Through numerous tests and experiments, Diptyque sought solutions to improve this technology and push back its limits, in particular for bass reproduction.

• PPBM®: Push Pull Bipolar Magnet is an innovative patented architecture. The large section bipolar magnets, manufactured to specification, are located at the front and rear of the diaphragm. They make it possible to maintain the coil (aluminum tapes) in a constant magnetic field when the membrane moves, which is thus perfectly controlled. The bass is more dynamic and transient sounds are reproduced with precision. Listening to a grand piano is impressively realistic.
• A sandwich mechanical structure. Composed of the assembly of chassis in MDF and 2mm steel sheets maintained tight by many mechanical screws. This set is perfectly rigid and not reasoning, it is a mechanical reference which guarantees the absence of coloring and the respect of the timbres.
• Proprietary ribbon tweeters. The ribbon is produced as an isodynamic cell (mylar film and aluminum coil). It moves in an intense magnetic field made from neodymium magnets. These tweeters operate over a wide frequency range and mate perfectly with isodynamic cells. A simple crossover (12 db per octave) allows a perfect fusion of the registers. The highs are soft, precise and spin high to give a sublime soundstage.
