Do I have enough electronics for Contour s1.4?


For the last 8 years I have been driving a set of Dynaudio Audience 52se with a Musical Fidelity A3.2 integrated A3.2 CD and an Apple digital network feeding an MSB Link DAC III. It is wired up with Kimber Kable products (Hero /4vs).
I've been quite pleased with this setup but have the upgrade itch. I'm considering picking up a set of Dynaudio Contour s1.4s to replace the 52se. Will there be an improvement? Do I have enough front end to make the s1.4 perform? The A3.2 is rated at 185w @ 4ohms.

Thanks!

Although I have not heard them the new Dynaudio Evoke has got great reviews for the money from Axpona. I owned the C1's and later the C1 signature. Great monitor. I had an in home demo of the original C2 but did not care for the vertical sound stage. But that is my opinion. Contour 20's will have more punch than the C1's.

That said you do know that version of the Confidence has been discontinued along with the Evidence so pre owned pricing should come down.
Here is a link to current products and retail pricing
