Topic: Dynaudio Speakers

[synchro_01]

Anyway, i have been backreading this thread and found out that most would recommend a CLASSE or a NAD to drive the Dyna's.  Heard already a DYNA/CLASSE combi about 10 years ago and until now dko pa makalimutan ang tunog.  Passed by SM and saw an HK stereo only integrated amp (HK904?) that isspecified to drive 4ohms speakers.  What's your take on this?

Can you also direct me where to find second hand Classe's and NAD? Does Listening Room still carry this brand?   What about other amps that's cheaper than Classe, any reco?  Also saw a NAD 2400 for sale, ok ba un with the Dyna's? Thanks in advance.  Sorrrrry ha dami question. na-excited lang. 

im selling 2 units of the Classe model seventy power amps. not using them anymore since im more into stereo these days which incidentally is also Dyn/Classe powered. Dyn/Classe combi user for 8 years already and so far I have not had the urge to upgrade. synergy is very good in my opinion.

Dynaudio fans,

I've had my Audience 52s for quite some time and I'd like to plan for a front speaker upgrade by next year. I'm hooked with the Dyn sound so I'm not interested in shifting brands. Also, my center and surrounds are Audience 42s and 42C so it seems best to stick with the Audience line.

Question lang for those who have experience with the SEs:

What would be a worthwhile upgrade: Audience 52SE or Audience 72? Why?

Thanks!

hi guys!!!

its my first time to be in a forum..

need ur help..

hev anyone tried focus 140 with a jolida jd801a tube amp (70wpc x 2 @ 8ohms)?

im planning to buy one kc. i know that dynes are very good and it
matches my taste as far as sound quality is concern when paired
with a good and powerful amps.

but im just worried if it will sound well with my jolida integrated amp..

PS. hi myki!! tnxs for d sr5500.

[synchro_01]

bring your amp and test it. thats the only way to see if it could drive the Focus well.

most probably it could...but just as advised, the safest way to answer your ? is to try it.

[Macgyv3r]

tnxs guys!!!

actually thats my last game plan..

after i narrowed down my search to at least 3 brands.. i'll audition it one by one with my own amp..

[lakambini]

[bass_nut]

Hello Guys my HT set up are all Dynaudios tho I got them in 2002.  They still look great tho.

a pair of audience 52 for the fronts
2 42c for center and rear center
a pair of audience 42 for rears
1 audience sub 30

I'm moving my HT to a much smaller space and These things are getting too bulky.  I'm very tempted to buy the polk audio surroundbar50 which should keep my smallish area clean.

I'm planning to use the Dynaudios for Music instead (maybe with tubes).  Is this a good idea?  or should I stick to the dynes and not mind the not so clean/neat look.

[Ctlim]

is depends on what you really want to achieve. those are alot of speakers and while still very good models (up to know) you've used them enough na naman to get your moneys worth since 2002 siguro.

if you have a space constraint then you might be better off replacing your current speakers. i suggest you keep a pair of 52s or 42s for a 2ch audio set-up next to your polk surroundbar.

hi sir,

i recently listened to dyns focus 140 at LIS Shangri-la Mall... hooked on McIntosh s/s integrated amp 200wpc... i like what i heard... but i approximate these Dyns, like other dyns, will output a bit more when hooked on separates...

i will try these dyns on separates (tube preamp and tube power amps) made by AMXAudio several weeks from now... will see if my "estimate" is correct...

best regards,
fer

Hello ctlim!

If I leave 2 52s on the front, that would just defeat the purpose of my getting the surroundbar (clean, lean, near invisible speakers entertainment area).   I realize that I will have to stick with my current set-up cause it could altleast double as my audio speakers, something the surroundbar can't do, right?  (and disposing of my 4 other speakers would be a pain... since prices have gone way up since I got them)  I'm just enamored with the surroundbar's high technology and maybe looking for a reason to buy:(

listened to the same set-up and I liked the output of the gray limited edition audience 52 compared to the focus 140.

oh... thanks for the heads up... i will let LIS fire the Audience 52 on my next visit...


from what i observed, their listening sofa was placed way back to more than 1.5meter of the "sweet spot" of Dyns Focus 140... i sat on the floor where the sweet spot was and was satisfied with the output... it will be interesting to listen to these babies on tube preamp/poweramp...

btw, Audience series are truly pleasing considering the price point... when budget permits i might grab me a pair of audience floorstanders...

cheers!!

hi there. how was your session in LIS. am a happy owner of the focus 110. great bass and musicality and a lot of speaker for the money. you are right though you have to at least place the focus series 3 feet from the wall fpr it to performs its best.

regards

Has anyone heard the Dynaudio's new entry level DM and Excite series lines which replaces the retired Audience series?

[bass_nut]

@ sir ilongranger
i was not able to listen to audience 52 when i visited LIS   .. rather, i was given a chance to listen to a pair of Dynaudio Evidence Temptation for at least an hour.. SQ was superb for my taste  

@ sir Romy
i was able to listen to a smallish pair of excite X12 bookshelf type .. mids & higs are very beautiful.. the low frequency notes tight but a bit lacking for my taste.. maybe these pair still needed proper burn-in hours and proper location in a room to up the bass.. or a decent and well integrating sub may complement it well.. YMMV

for my untrained ears all Dyns speakers sing well brother Cal especially when matched with very good source, preamp and power amp and high quality cables (example: Cal's cables) ...hence, i am pretty sure your F/S Dyns are superbly performing too as your system (and room) are very revealing, very capable and very authoritative
