Are Dynaudio Bookshelfs Dynamic?


Other than a couple of short listening experiences, really don't have a feel for the Dynaudio Bookshelfs - Excite, Focus or Contour. The only Dynaudio I spent time withw is the BM5A Studio Monitor. Found the FR to be exceptionally flat and the overall sound, while true, to be uninvolving.

I have a pair of Neat Critiques driven with an Exposure 2010S2 (different system) that delivers the type of dynamics and, if you will, PRaT that I prefer.

I'll be using a Primare A30.1 and of the Excite 12, 16, Focus 110 and Contour 1.1, which is the most dynamic, most PRaT or should I be looking at another speaker brand?

I'm leaning towards the Focus 110 and looking to spend ~$1000 used.

I have owned several Contour 1.4s and find them to be quite dynamic, and overall an excellent speaker. They need high current amplification to sound their best. If you have quality amp they will outclass many similar brands at their price point. I would not give them less than 200 watt at 4 ohm. The tweeter and bass/mid are exceptional IMO.
