Great info

I have the Confidence 30's and I used the factory rubber feet which came with the speaker. They seem effective. You say kinda isolate? Are you not sure, should I be using something else? I have hardwood floors.

Thanks for the vid

Hello... I have a question about mounting speakers to stand. You said that is possible to screw them to the stand. But speakers (for example Evoke 20) don't have ready-made screw at the bottom. Im little affraid to drill a hole into speaker cabinet. Can you give recommendation which way is the best?

Exactly the question I was looking for, than you?

hello In terms of bass performance Between contour 30i and confidence 20 Which speaker has deeper bass? Thanks

What type of wood is the Confidence 30 made out of?

Since I am not able to contact Dynaudio direct by any means, maybe you can answer a question. I own a pair of Confidence 30's In the ruby wood finish. What material is this speaker made from? is it plywood, a special hard wood etc? Can you please reply?

Burnt / melted voice coil is akin to a completely burned batch of cup cakes, you are not in doubt at all - and as stated, usually followed by a lot of rattling and scraping.

So if the tweeter gets pushed in at all and is left that way for an unknown amount of time but sucked out way after the fact, is it just broken and useless at a certain point?

Hallo, thanks for the good explanation! I still have one question: Do I really need a Laptop running the Dirac software, or can I use my IPad instead?

What a nasty manipulation is to saying that closed cabs are good for low extension. In reality it's completely opposite. Even if they have smoother roll off, which in itself is true. But it's only half of truth and there is a saying: A half-truth is a whole lie. Very, very nasty of you. And look at your page. You claim, your sub3 reproduce 22Hz +/- 3dB at 85dB. Reffering to Fletcher-Munson curves it's usefull for circa 20dB 1kHz signal. So it's on a threshold of human hearing. In other words it's completely useless. BIG xD. After this video I know to completely avoid your company and products.

I learned nothing from this video. Next time include some actual information that could inform a purchase decision or help current owners of your products.

❤❤❤❤

It would be nice to have a separate video about the construction and making of the studio

I would love to buy a new active countour speaker with better and more modern looks. Keep the front alu baffle but no screws and no bass port. Also all matt finish no gloss please on wood. Just saying 😅

I use for many years only Dynaudio Active speakers from Xeo to Focus. Amazing performance. People can still change the sound with Dirac. I always did with the Xeo using a minidsp SHD. I would love to see a new countour line with better and modern looks active speakers keeping the front baffle but no screws to be seen.

Tried both emit 20 better to my ears

Excellent masterclass. Use these measurements to mark the distance from the speaker to the rear wall (1/5) but for the distance from the side wall apply 1/7. This approach is like the one Vandersteen suggests, which consists of dividing the room into odd numbers and finding your best location As a Dynaudio user and now a Perlisten user, great masterclass

@Dynaudio, you shouldn't ignore the question from your subscriber and potential buyer. Answer my question that I asked here earlier. This attitude towards loyal subscribers is not very nice.

Hi Otto! Very nice videos and very interesting toppings! Can you please tell me something that is hard to understand from my side? I have always related small diameter drivers to low power units, and big drivers for high power. For example, when I started with hi fi systems,I did with a 25 watts stereo amplifier (Sansui , by the way). At that time I used a DIY 2 way system with a 8” woofer, and it’s excursion was way big just with 25 watts, and of course it sound very loud! ..So..why do I need to drive a bookshelf speaker with a 60 or 100 watts amplifier? Does this only means wasting of energy? Or just getting the drivers to it’s limits with no sense? Hope you get the idea and can clarify this a bit in some other video. Thank you!

Can my aging 15 year old speakers develop woofer sag? I've heard that rotating the woofers 180 degrees in the cabinet is a good idea. Is this really necessary?

Ok had to stop watch.. dud staring back at the camera is just creeping me out. At the least he could do is blink... Yikes.

Hi guys. It's great to see you talking about this issue. Optimizing your speaker placement is the lowest hanging fruit out there because it's free. In regards to you comments, when you place the speaker against the wall and you experience LF acoustical loading, it's important to note that the boost is near minimum phase, which means it can be quite easily compensated for (if you prefer less bass) by using the subtractive LF shelf directly on the back panel of the speaker. This also will have the extra benefit of making the speaker more efficient and reducing distortion. Given that you can simply shelve the LF down to compensate for acoustical loading, why would you want to move the speaker away from the wall? This puts the reflected energy out of phase, which cannot be compensated for with causal EQ. Regarding SBIR, as you gap out the speaker from the wall, you will experience boundary nulling in your low end at the 1/4 wavelength frequency. Moving the speaker around will not fix the problem; it will only shift the cancellation notch - which will remain in the critical bass region unless you're able to gap the speaker 3m or more into the room and shift the cancellation null into the infrasonic range. You'll also have constructive interference, which will amplify the bass where it's in phase. So you now have a compromised LF frequency response. In my view, considering the physics, it's not a good solution to move the speaker out from the wall. You create a problem (the hole in your LF) which cannot be fixed with EQ. No amount of room EQ can fix boundary nulling. You cannot fix a time-based problem with a frequency-based solution.

What kinds of music are best with soft dome vs. be vs planar?

Is there a product recommended to finish the cone surface with?

Couldn't silicon oil be used?

How about Confidence 20 active? Will it compete well with Dutch and Dutch 8C, or Kii Three, or Genelec 8351B?

Any experience matching with a subwoofer?

I'm considering 3 bookshelves above the TV in a horizontal line, TV is "correctly" placed as you say, they won't be very high up. How wide should I have L and R above a 55" TV?

What about slightly elevating the sub (wall mount)?

Hello Dynaudio! I write music and do mixing. I want to buy a monitor for myself and I can't decide between two models. Please tell me, as far as I know, the amplitude-frequency response of the lyd7 and lyd8 are absolutely the same. Although usually 8-inch monitors have a wider range of low frequencies than 7-inch ones. Then what is the difference between the dynaudio lyd7 and lyd8? Do I understand correctly that a larger and heavier 8-inch speaker will not be able to reproduce the midrange as well as a lighter 7-inch speaker? Then what is the advantage of the 8-inch lyd8 model if it cannot give a lower resonant frequency compared to the lyd7 model? And one more question. What is the frequency response of the lyd7 and lyd8 at the level of +/- 3db?

Hello. Where to to take distance on sub 6 to put in DSP.

Thinking of getting some evoke 20s. Is there an update in the near future 20i model perhaps

Does anyone have a link to mazzaro’s version of the angels and demons score that Hans found?

You can wire a center speaker in a 2 speaker system by taking the plus from the left and hooking it the negative on your center speaker. then taking the plus from the right speaker and hooking it to the positive on your center speaker. Both positives go to the center speaker, One to the negative terminal the other to the positive terminal. I just did this myself t. It works great!

Could you clarify if each driver has its own amp; would the volume knobs of those amps be sufficient for doing the "fine tuning" you are talking about.

He is super super talented and so humble and sweet. Bless you for finding uour talent.

What about a passive radiator? Btw, I think you could easily have spoken about this for 20 minutes.

feels like there's a standing wave between me and him when he stares at the camera

Touching

Very informative.

I ain’t using Benzine 💀 shits cancerous

Whos the very beautiful lady in your rigth?

You trully excelled with this sound system in this laptop nothing came even close, well done.

QUESTION: My loudspeakers are about 16 years old and I love their performance. They were expensive high end speakers and I want to preserve and maintain them as long as possible. So I was wondering if there is any benefit in rotating the mid/woofer 180 degrees to prevent any sagging of the foam surround or other rubber parts. In other words the 12 o'clock position of the driver becomes the 6 o'clock position. Your thoughts please.

Contour S5.4, one of them sounds a little bit duller. Tried different locations, exchanged monoblock amps with the other speaker and no change, so I assume it is the speaker. Coincidentally, it has a couple small dents on the tweeter. Could that be the reason of the slightly duller sound? Or would it be a crossover issue? Your advise will be appreciated.

If he’s not emphatically raising and lowering his arms while speaking he’s staring weirdly at the camera when the expert is explaining stuff. 👀 Weird as f… 😱
