DYNAUDIO EXPERTS Pro line vs Home Audio line


Maybe you guys could kick some information too me in this comparison. I have a pair of MKII 1.3's and the contour center. I was looking at putting together a 5.1 setup. I was hoping to retire the MKII 1.3's to the rear channel and buy a set of Dynaudio 52SE or 1.4's for the front. Basically I am just looking for something that will outperform the MKII 1.3's (though they are very pleasing) Anyway, I looked at the BM15A's as a possibility as well. Would they suite in this enviroment or am I way off base. I was thinking that they would be a good way of getting a bit more depth with the size of the driver. I heard rumours that the BM6 was a takeoff of the MKII SE (even though the specs are different). Is that true? Whats your thoughts... I do not want to go with a floor stander though...

Depending on your budget, I would tend to stay with the "home" audio end of the Dyn lineup. The older Confidence 4's are outstanding, and the Special 25's are pretty darn nice too. To my ears they sound best with tubes (I had mine powered w/Audio Research stuff, and later Classe' SS). Make sure the partnering equipment is up to task though or you wont hear what these speakers can really do.

I have only heard the "Pro" line in one recording studio, and have never heard them in a home environment. So take my comments with a grain of salt on the comparison issues.
