Dynaudio Upgrade?


Hi. I bought a used pair of Dynaudio Audience 52 se last year and I love them. With the Focus 160 on sale and abundant on the used market,would that be a worthwhile upgrade? Thx

Yes it would be an upgrade. You do know that Dynaudio is discontinuing the passive Focus line but keeping the active XD's going
As you move up the Dynaudio line up there is more refinement. The Focus 160 will be a bit punchier and tipped up in the highs vs Contour or Confidence. Some will say the Contour and Confidence will sound a bit laid back in comparison.

Me personally I like the punchier tipped up sound for about an hour or so (wow factor). The longer I listen to them the more I dislike them. Again my opinion. I owned the C1 and later the C1 sig's for several years. To me they sound more natural and balanced.
