Dynaudio packing Grill on or off My C1's had the grills on when they were shipped. | |
Proper amp for Dynaudio Focus 110, $2000 max I would add Naim to the list. The 5i (new) or XS (used) should be in your price range | |
Best small speakers? +1 for Dynaudio | |
cable fast dynamic and transparant recommendation May want to consider the frey or tyr. I did a side by side comparison between the frey and valhalla. The frey is at least 90% of the valhalla. Yeah the valhalla is way out of my budget too. | |
Review: Focal Micro Be vs. Dynaudio C1 mk1 Monitor I just upgraded from the C1 to the C1 signatures. They are clearer than the originals and better at lower volumes. I don't have a spl meter so I can't compare db levels. The only difference (besides price) between the MKII's and Signatures is the ... | |
Balanced / single ended night and day difference Douglas I agree 100%. I used the same Nordost Frey Ic's. They are not the same sounding at the same volume. Had it been for the gain I probably would have gone for the Xlr's. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it | |
Balanced / single ended night and day difference Good point Al. I forgot to mention when I compared cables at first I had the both connected at the same time. The XRL's were just horrible with the RCA's being an obvious winner. Once I used them separately they both sounded better.Edorr I have an... | |
Balanced / single ended night and day difference Wow - When I compared the 2 I heard just the opposite. I preferred the wider sound stage but hated the gain I heard with the balanced cables. I got the single ended. | |
Review: Dynaudio Focus 220 Mk2 Speaker Yes Dyn's have an extremely hard and long break in but as you found stick it out and you will be rewarded. I'm on my 3rd pair of C1's (I wasn't happy with the finish on my first pair and Dynaudio replaced them). I have the Signatures now. 350 hrs ... | |
All Amps Sound the Same.... Hey it must be the zip cords he's using for speaker cables :) | |
Bryston B100 SST2 w/ Dyn C1 Like I said the B100 will work and sound very good. You can always replace the Bryston at a later date like I did. If possible bring the Bryston and source with you when you audition the MKII's. Remember the room and speaker placement has a lot to... | |
Bryston B100 SST2 w/ Dyn C1 Forgot to mention that I fought with my local dealer for over a year regarding a better integrated. It wasn't until he brought the Octave V70SE to My Home to compare side by side that I heard that the Bryston could be bettered. | |
Bryston B100 SST2 w/ Dyn C1 I had a B100SST driving my C1's for over a year. It works but the rated power is somewhat deceiving. I even had my son's 3BSST using the pre out from the B100. Didn't notice a difference. I traded my Bryston B100 in for a 70W Octave tube integrate... | |
disc player/transport longevity Got my Yamaha CDX1030 in 1999 and it still works although the drawer opens and closes very slowly. | |
Looking for Integrated Amp for Dynaudio 1.3 MkII's I had the Bryston B100SST and to me the Naim XS and Octave V70SE just destroy the Bryston in every way. I traded in my Bryston for the Octave. Both the Naim and the Octave are high current integrateds and the Bryston is not. That being said I foug... |
