New Dynaudio Heritage Special..?..!


Does anyone know anything about these speakers?
just launched last week.
only 2500 made. $7000 or so in US.
Looks like an old Contour, but has all the components of the Confidence.
sounds like the ultimate monitor.

I have Special 40s and now am envious..😉

anyone hear anything?

@wjob, I'm considering purchasing the Heritage Specials.  You mentioned that these are the best monitors you've ever heard.  What monitors have you experienced prior (owning or testing)?

How would you describe the tonality of the upper midrange and the bass? I love a little of the V curve (tilted up in treble and bass) but mostly desire neutral tone. 

Would you say the speakers work well with most types of music especially orchestral pieces?  My hope is that it has great soundstage that extends beyond the boxes from sided to side and back and front.  Imaging is important to me as well although it doesn't have to etch out and place each instrument or musician in its place.  Could you speak to how the Heritage Specials do with soundstage and imaging?   

Thanks for all your help...your assessment will be super helpful!
@wjob, thank you for the thorough assessment and breakdown of your experiences with the Heritage Specials.  Your description of each aspect is tipping me over the edge to 'Yes.'  I'm going to schedule an appointment with a local dealer to demo them and will keep you posted!  Enjoy those speakers and please feel free to share how your experience goes!
@ghasley thanks so much for your personal anecdote, fun read! The more I know what I’m getting into, the better.  I've always been curious about Devores so interesting to see that comparison.
@wjob, I forgot to ask - how are the Heritage Specials with low listening levels?
