Special Twenty-Five
Dynaudio celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2002 with the release of one the finest compact loudspeakers on the market,
the Special Twenty-Five. The first "Limited" edition, with its special burled birch veneer and a solid aluminium back plate
signed by Dynaudio's co-founder and CEO Wilfried Ehrenholz, sold out quickly. After the anniversary year, and as a result
of much urging from distributors and consumers alike, a second edition was produced - this one available without the
signature or the 25-year warranty of the "Limited" edition, and finished in the four traditional Dynaudio veneer options. In
response to repeated requests from the market, Dynaudio decided to re-issue the Special Twenty-Five for a limited period
of time. This latest edition is similar to the very first, original anniversary model including the exclusive burled birch veneer
and a signed solid aluminium back plate.
Like the first edition, the Special Twenty-Five is equipped with the finest Dynaudio driver technology: The legendary
Esotar2 tweeter with neodymium magnet and vented rear chamber, mated to a 20 cm (8 inch) woofer. This driver is a
technical descendant to the driver in Dynaudio's unparalleled flagship Evidence Master model. Equally advanced is the 1st
order crossover, using select components on a glass fibre enforced PCB. High-quality ceramic resistors are mechanically
and thermally stabilised by the cabinet's aluminium back plate.
With all this technology, the Special Twenty-Five performance delivers the substantial sonic impact of a floor standing
loudspeaker with the homogenous balance and precise imaging characteristic of a fine two-way compact speaker. With an
excellent sensitivity of 88 dB and a linearized impedance, the Special Twenty-Five offers an ideal match for a very wide
range of high-quality amplifiers.
The Special Twenty-Five is ennobled with a very special and rare burled birch veneer, master crafted by hand in the
Dynaudio cabinetry facility in Denmark. The classic yet advanced cabinet construction is comprised of multi-layered low
resonance MDF/LDF wood panels with an overall thickness of 30 mm, additionally braced in specific areas. The rear of the
cabinet is equipped with a solid aluminium back plate, carrying the name of the loudspeaker and the signature of Dynaudio
co-founder and CEO Wilfried Ehrenholz to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Dynaudio marking the year when this
venerable model was first introduced.
Because of the extensive time and effort to produce a Special Twenty-Five, along with the limited availability of the
exclusive burled birch veneer, the 2010 re-issue will only be available for a short period of time. With this re-issue,
Dynaudio enthusiasts will have one last chance to acquire one of the market's most revered high-end compact
loudspeakers in its original anniversary version.
