Dynaudio C2 with Plinius 9200

Dynaudios C or Contour have no treble thus will sound muddy or as some audiophiles prefer to call it tubey or warm.

As oppose to most of theorist around here I listen to every piece of equipment before I comment on its quality. And I am not a salesman ,so i ahve no vested interest in misleading folks as oppose to you AudioFeil.

Interesting observation. I listened to less expensive or perhaps the least expensive Dynaudio Countour 1.4 through Linn integrated then trough Naim nait in both cases treble was dead, just like you described it : there was no Alive-sound to be found.

Side note: 99% of speakers are just horrible exercises in cabinet making and have nothing to do with competent design.

If anyone needs a good set of speakers they don't need to look anywhere other than ATC floor standing speakers preferably active.

I dont care what you folks read in brochures printed by manufacturer and in stereo mag reviews : Esostar tweeter Wee- wee or Meee God!!!. I have a pair of ears and I can hear what type of junk Dynaudio puts out. It is your loss if you cannot hear how boomy and out of phase that speaker is. Perhaps they make some super-expensive or rare model that was designed well, I did not hear it.
If you like soft, blanketed sound and strive to match bad speaker with bad amp for warm bloomy crap to come out, then Dynaudio C Co are perfect as any other box for such experiments.
You all need to step away form your keyboards go buy a ticket to a local symphony hall and listen to live performance for a change . re-set your ears. You clearly have been in audiophile-land for way too long.

P.S. I would not recommend to use Krell KAV for 2-channel sound. Krell KAV is one of the worst amplifiers I have ever heard.

Pdreher if you care to know I have Marantz universal player Music Hall Mambo amp and ATC SCM 35 Passive.
I use copper wires for cables. And all my power cords are black.

I don't think it is a power issue. If it was I would be complaining about lack of bass not the excess of it.
Look , I do think objectively that absolute majority of products on the audio market are bad. I am not talking about voodoo products like audio fuses and power cords: those are beyond any criticisms for any rational person. I am talking about all that plethora of electronic equipment that is floating around this forum and many other sites with FOR SALE signs on it.
And btw SYNERGY was invented by salesmen. I am not going to deny that most amps intensionally designed to sound distorted, so that audiophiles have something to talk about on these forums, but it's not a reason for anyone to jump on that marry-go-round.
The moment I hear someone talking about MATCHING amplifier to a speaker I realize that they talking about broken electronics being paired with poorly-designed analog front.
Think about it rationally; have you ever heard anyone returning from a concert and complaining that orchestra sounded soft o lacked bass or that they would look for a warmer sounding performers next time?
Next time someone tells you :"Sound is subjective" laugh at them. Sound is objective to a very high degree that is evolution, that is harmony that everyone understands. If sound was subjective we would not have music or recognise each other voices.
