The Diptyque DP115 Isodynamic Floorstanding Speakers strike an ideal balance between refined aesthetics and superior sound reproduction. Combining the transparency and refinement of top-tier models with a sleek, unobtrusive design, the DP115 is perfect for audiophiles seeking high-fidelity audio in a variety of living spaces.

Key Features

• Exclusive Isodynamic Design: Built on Diptyque’s optimized PPBM principle, the DP115 features a 45 cm ribbon tweeter with neodymium magnets. This design enhances transparency, speed, and imaging, providing clear and detailed sound reproduction across a wider frequency range.
• Plane Wave Diffusion: Isodynamic technology ensures diffusion over a large area by plane wave, creating an immersive listening environment without typical sound projection effects.
• Dipole Operation: Operating dipole on both sides of the speakers recreates the spatialization of a live concert in your listening room, enhancing the sense of space and depth in the audio.
• Thin Mylar Membranes: Extremely thin mylar membranes offer high-speed response with minimal drag, ensuring consistent dynamic behavior across the entire frequency spectrum.
• Choice of Finish Customization: Personalize your DP115 with a selection of 160 RAL colors available for custom orders, in addition to the standard finishes. This extensive customization allows the speakers to seamlessly integrate into any decor. 

Eco-Friendly Design

The DP115 is 100% repairable, ensuring sustainability and long-term use. Diptyque’s commitment to environmental responsibility means your speakers are built to last and easy to maintain.

Design and Build

The DP115 features a lightweight Pocan® composite housing, chosen for its anti-coloration properties and rigidity. This durable construction securely holds all components, minimizing unwanted vibrations that can affect sound quality. The sleek and slim profile of just 22 mm allows the DP115 to blend seamlessly into a variety of living spaces while delivering robust and precise sound performance. The mechanical sandwich structure, inherited from the Reference model, ensures stability and accuracy in sound reproduction, even with the larger drivers.

Performance

Equipped with a 0.198 m² bass-midrange driver based on the exclusive optimized PPBM principle and a 45 cm ribbon tweeter, the DP115 delivers smooth, extended highs with low distortion. When paired with a quality amplifier, the DP115 creates a high-fidelity system that offers a natural and engaging listening experience without coloration. Similar to premium HiFi planar headphones, the DP115 fills larger rooms with the fullness and clarity typically reserved for more extensive isodynamic panels, providing an exceptional listening experience for music enthusiasts.

Technology

Diptyque's commitment to isodynamic technology provides several advantages for the DP115. Plane wave diffusion and dipole operation on both sides of the speakers ensure an immersive listening experience without typical sound projection effects. The use of extremely thin mylar membranes allows for high-speed response with minimal drag, maintaining consistent dynamic behavior across the entire frequency spectrum. This uniformity is achieved by using the same type of diaphragm from bass to treble, providing balanced and detailed sound even at low listening levels. Additionally, the isodynamic design eliminates the "box sound" commonly associated with midrange buzz, preserving the natural timbre of voices and instruments. The regular impedance simplifies integration with amplifiers, and the high reliability of the DP115 ensures long-term performance without susceptibility to dust, humidity, or high voltage issues.

Exclusive Diptyque Technologies

PPBM® (Push Pull Bipolar Magnet): This innovative patented architecture uses large section bipolar magnets located at the front and rear of the diaphragm. This setup maintains the coil in a constant magnetic field during membrane movement, ensuring precise bass reproduction and transient response. Listening to a grand piano is impressively realistic with this technology.

Sandwich Mechanical Structure: Composed of an assembly of MDF chassis and 2mm steel sheets, maintained tightly by numerous mechanical screws, the sandwich structure provides exceptional rigidity and eliminates color distortion, ensuring accurate sound reproduction.

Proprietary Ribbon Tweeters: The ribbon tweeters are produced as isodynamic cells using mylar film and aluminum coils. They operate within a powerful neodymium magnetic field, ensuring precise and soft high frequencies. A simple 12 dB per octave crossover allows for perfect fusion of the registers, resulting in a clear soundstage with precise highs.

Versatility and Compatibility

The Diptyque DP115 is compatible with a wide range of tonearm designs, including straight, S-shaped, and J-shaped arms made from materials such as aluminum and carbon-fibre. Its standard fixing center of 12.7 mm (0.5 in) allows for straightforward installation on most turntables. Designed to work seamlessly with standard moving magnet phono inputs of integrated amplifiers, the DP115 offers flexibility for various audio setups. Whether upgrading an existing system or enhancing an obsolete one, the DP115 provides a versatile solution for quality vinyl playback without the need for additional equipment or system adjustments.

Reviews and Videos

"DP 115 speakers are an exceptional choice for audiophiles and AV enthusiasts who appreciate detailed, clear, and responsive sound. While their dipole design and figure-eight dispersion pattern may not suit every room layout, particularly those seeking consistently loud sound throughout an open-plan space, they excel in dedicated listening areas. Their aesthetic appeal, combined with their impressive performance across different media, makes them an excellent speaker option to any high-end audio setup."
