I own the 2.5s and have heard the 3.0s. I can say that the 2.5 is a much sweeter sounding speaker. Not that the dynaudio is harsh, it just that the highs in Proacs are smooth and sweet, yet highly detailed and revealing. The dynaudio does have a better lower midrange than the proac. And also slightly better low bass extension. I went with the proac b/c it images like a monitor, and throws a wide soundstage! I think the main difference is that the dynaudio is more forward in the midrange with a better grasp of male voices, while the proac is more laid back in the midrange, but female vocals sound better through the proac. In terms of detail, they are about equal-edge to proac. Transparency-proac. Bass-dynaudio. Highs-proac. Midrange-dynaudio. ALso the proac is rear ported, but dont need to be more than 2 feet from the wall. 1 foot can be fine. Also the proac can be driven by anything. I have a pass aleph 3 driving them at 30 watts!!!
Dynaudio 3.0 vs. ProAc 2.5
I've posted before, but was hoping for more feedback. I have small living room 16x12 ish. Listen to vocals, rock, and jazz. I also have a HT set-up not really important but like the tight and powerful bass. Currently have Aragon 8008BB but considering Pass X150. What are your thoughts and the differences between ProAc and Dyna's?
