I don't know the Audience 8 but I've owned a lot of Dynaudio speaker all the way from the Audience 42 to the C4 and they've all been great probably most impressive of all was the Audience 42 which I paid something like 300 bucks for and was a seriously great sounding speaker. They to me all retain a certain house sound which I would call smooth and liquid. All the Dynaudios I've owned need good amps cheap ones do them no good. Not like I've had a lot of cheap amps but for instance an Outlaw 2150 just did not work with the Audience 42. When I stepped it up to the Creek Destiny those speakers really came to life and they did as well with a Sim Audio i5.3 integrated as well. I think Dynaudio speakers excel when you are out of critical mode just chilling and listening to music without worrying so much about tweaking and trying to achieve better sound at all times. They are a great set it and forget it speaker.
Dynaudio Audience 8
I know Dynaudios get good reviews but there are so many different models that I can't keep up, or even begin to understand what is what. Are the dynaudio audience 8's nice sounding speakers? Where do they fit in the line and about how old are they?
