I directly compared the Confidence C1 Platinum with the Contour 20.The C1 is a much better sounding speaker.It does not sound like a box and sounds much cleaner and more open and 3D and bass is much more accurateThe Contour 30 might be better than the Contour 20 but I doubt it will be as good as the C1.The C1 is just a really special sounding speaker.I also suspect the C1 is better than the C2 as long as your room suits them.
Dynaudio Contour 30 vs Confidence C2 comparisons
Hey all, first time poster long time browser.
I currently own Dynaudio C1 platinum for the L/R fronts (midsized room), and I'm looking to get a bit fuller sound top to bottom from the larger floor standing models... ie the C2 or Contour 30. I have no means to audition either, but I know I absolutely love my C1s. Just interested in any opinions from people that have heard either/both of these models. I THINK I know what to expect with the C2, but with the contour line being remade and bumped up in price has me intrigued. I absolutely love the clean looks of the Contour 30, but I worry I'd be taking a step back from Confidence. I also have been hearing murmuring of an updated confidence line, which I'm sure (if indeed that is the case) will be priced even higher, way out of my budget.
ANY honest opinions (or facts for that matter) are welcomed and thanks in advance!
