Personally, I think the 2.8's are the winner. They are the reference series of the Contour line. The 3.0's and 3.3's have boomy bass. The 2.8's bass is very tight, too tight and subtle for some. Very accurate and linear.
Dynaudio contour 2.8, 3.0, 3.3
Is there anyone that could tell me a bit more about these speakers? In the future I might want to upgrade my speakers and somehow I think I will like these Dynaudio's but I actually have no idea why. I never head any Dynaudio speakers.
At the moment I have Impulse Aria SE speakers its floor standing a 2.5way speaker. But I think they are the weak link now.
So I am looking for a speaker that can rock, but doesn't lose detail or intimacy when I play some quieter music like Heather Nova. The speaker I want must be able to kick and scream when I play some thrash metal, nut most also be able to convey emotion and intimacy when I play some singer songwriter.
I sit about 7 feet from my speaker and my speakers are about 5 feet apart. There is not much room to maneuver. The speaker stand about 10 feet from the rear wall (there is furniture between the wall and speaker) the right speaker is about 1 to 2 feet from the wall the other is about 5 feet from the side wall.
My amp is a Symphonic Line La Musica and I really live that amp, so that is going to stay.
Now will the Dynaudio work in those conditions? What is the better model, I heard some people say that the 2.8 was the best from that series, is that true? Or should I look for something different? Those Dynaudio models go for about €2000 to €3000 where I live that is also the max for. I have also been looking at monitor speakers like the a Verity, a Totem mani or a Dynaudio C1. But for those I will need a stand so it won't safe me any space or money, I don't know how good those monitors are.
Any help, advise is welcome.
