Dyanudio Xeo 3 Wow


I bought a pair of these for my bedroom to replace a big system on a rack I had there before. I needed something simpler and hopefully didn't disappoint to much. I did not expect these to sound as good as they do. I've owed a lot of different stereos and in my travels this has got to be the best bang for the buck I've ever heard. These little speakers seriously rock and fill my 12x15 bedroom to the brim with excellent sound. If you had an interest in these speakers I can highly recommend to check them out they are the real deal. I am feeding them a digital signal from an Apple TV that I stream to from my iTunes library on my computers. I don't know how Dynaudio has packed so much into such a small box that produces such a big sound. They have hit it out of the park with this one in my opinion.

My local hi fi guy was telling me how much he liked dynaudio based on a pair of dynaudio bookshelf speakers they had a few months back. Then I heard a factory installed dynaudio system in the new v.w. Golf R. Best car stereo I've ever heard. Then, just today, I visited Rob (local hi-fi guy) again and we listened to a pair of wireless, self powered floorstanding dynaudio speakers (can't remember the model) for a good hour and let me tell you, these speakers are incredible. They came with crap power cords so they swapped them out with some that were $150 a piece. They also have a cheap plastic remote. Other than that no complaints. Seriously though, these speakers sounded incredible. Very smooth, detailed, black background, and incredible bass that filled a large room no problem. I haven't heard many really high end speakers but they did compare to some b&w 802 diamond series being powered by $7500 worth of Classe amp / pre-amp. Just think too, no expensive interconnects, xlr's, speakerwire etc. and your "system?" will look way cleaner and you don't have to worry about the synergy of multiple pieces.
So upon further investigation, it was the xeo 5 that that I was listening to the other day and they did sound incredible. They were being played through a $10,000 moon dac, which I'm sure helped, but still.
I guess you could use an external dac and then run analog inputs into the wireless transmitter. I suppose you don't "need" an external dac, I've just heard that an external dac does improve the sound quality. This is coming from someone who I feel is fairly knowledgable about this, since he is a dealer of dynaudio.
