| Used speaker for 5K I have decided. Tekton Moab. The good thing is, given the 60 day free trial, I will be able to test these speakers in my room, with my equipment, with my music. Before making this decision, I contacted many retailers of other brands (Harbeth, ATC,... | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. No, not joking...two years ago i bought a pair Dynaudio 3.3 for 1200 Euro. I sold them one year later for 1800 Euro. Then, end 2019, i bought a pair of Contour 60 for 5400 Euro and 6 month later the best offer i get is 4000 euro. And yes, the ... | |
| Hifi USB player fro under 250 Euro wow, that dosen't seems not even too complicated to build. Thanks a lot. Probably i will giwe i try if i don't find something already assembled. | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. Interestingly during the past 6 months, in the used market, the old Contour 5.4s are constantly rising in price and at the same time you can find now Contour 60's for less as the cheapest Contour 5.4. What could that mean? Is this behavior not co... | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. I had the opportunity to listen to the Dynaudio C5 driven by a Naim amplification. This sound is exactly what i’m looking for. Unfortunately there is no way to find the C5 in the used maket. Anyone knows which could be a more recent speaker which ... | |
| Speaker upgrade question. Not long ago I was lucky enough to play with a luxury DAC for about two weeks. It was the very well reviewed Border Patrol Dac, the 1600 Euro version. I used to have cheap Chinese DAC, the SMSL m8a. The SMSL was better in every aspect, dynamics, s... | |
| Speaker upgrade question. It’s simple, their own web pages says it clearly. The new management team is now more focused in "growth" as in quality. https://www.dynaudio.com/dynaudio-academy/2016/november/dynaudio-ceo-resigns-new-management-appointe... | |
| Speaker upgrade question. I sow the Tekton product for the first time yesterday...really impressive. They have also a few smaller products. If you put the grilles they look like simple a monoliths, far more my taste as the silly modern designs. The 30 day money back is ver... | |
| Speaker upgrade question. Take care, i had a terrible experience by upgrading from a 20 years old speaker (worth 1.200 today) and which i owned only for one year, to a new speaker worth 10K from the same company. The old speaker was unbelievably better. Not in my very pers... | |
| Dynaudio Contour 30 vs Confidence C2 comparisons I agree jtgofish that the new Contour line sounds like boxes emitting sound, 100%. I'm a unlucky owner of a pair of Contour 60. Previously i owned for just one year, a pair of Contour 3.3 which i loved. The upgrade was a complete disaster. I don't... | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. Hi rmiller01, unfortunately i cannot help you regarding your technical questions.But here i found an interesting comparison between the new line and the old line. Scroll down to the last 7 posts. There is even one user which says that the new Cont... | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. To my eyes the 60’s actually look cheaper, but I’m sure the intend is the opposite in an attempt to cater to a modern market and interior design tradition. But again, I generally agree with your views on named trend. Yes, to be honest I have yo... | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. I Think that if a Steinway grand piano can be tuned in order to make happy 99% of pianists in the world, pianists which hare all deeply committed to the problem of sound, much more as we are, then it should be possible to make a speaker which is a... | |
| High Performance Audio - The End? The hifi busines should split in two areas:Area 1) Music recorded from real sources in real spaces.Area 2) Syntetized or strongly manipulated music.Area 1 offers audio gear which follows the rules of "realism".Area 2 offers audio gear which follow... | |
| Old vs New, an experience with Dynaudio. Hi Gosta, bass creates problems in the C60 but for me this is not the biggest problem. I tried different equalizations, I added the foams in the bas reflex which strongly reduces the bass. But even doing so, the highs and mids are not realistic. U... |
