Dynaudio C1 Bass

"extensive run in period like 6-9 months with 8 hours playing time per day. Before that, you cannot have descent bass."

A blatant lie. Play them overnight for a couple days and you will have "decent bass" as you say.

You haven't really answered these questions...

1. Can you measure them? 1 measurement chart would tell the complete story instantly. Go buy a radio shack SPL meter for $20 or whatever

2. Have you experimented with placement?

I have owned my C1's for about two months now and they have rock solid bass down to the mid 30 hz. range.
Right out of the box they had much more bass output and extension than my previous much larger floorstanding Canton Vento 809's.
The problem sounds like a room/phase related issue.

Going to borrow a radio shack spl from my friend and do some tests next week. But will first try to move around the speakers this weekend.

Goatwuss,

I've borrowed the radio shack spl from my friend. But I encountered some technical difficulties on using the meter.

1. Where can you find the cable for connecting the meter to the PC? It is basically a RCA to the PC mini plug.

2. I'm not sure how to setup the meter. For example, there are the 'Range', 'db' and 'fast/slow' settings that I couldn't figure out the correct combinations of them.

3. On the software usage, could you give me some quick tips or tricks as well.

Thanks a lot

Wilmak, what about the stands you are using? I heard same monitor speakers on different stands sounding very different, including the bass extension.
Dynaudio makes the stand, are you using it?
