Swans of Hi-Vi Research/Dulcet is the Dynaudio of Canada [but no financial or business connection beyond the looks of their drivers]. They roll their own in their various factories [including East Asia]. I don't know if they utilize the Canadian speaker testing facilities or not.
I'm unfamiliar with their new line but their other designs are wonderful. I sold a friend a pair of Dulcet 2.1s a few years back. Rather ugly, formica!-fininshed cabinetry, but resonances approach zero, a very solid/inert package. They still sound quite good, even in a modest set up with ~25 watts/ch on tap. These were the bottom of the line when produced 8-10 years ago. And, yes, the woofer has a large, vented dustcap covering a large diameter voice coil like Dynaudio and Morel. Did they copy Dynaudio? Who knows? Are the results positve? All signs point to yes!
Some of the offerings seem quite formidable, esp at 44k! But as a company, I would expect good sound from everything they make. The multi-media stuff looks kinda cool also.
