Contour SUB

Home Theater, November 2000, by Chris Lewis

If you like speakers, you have to like a company like Dynaudio. You don’t necessarily have to like what they offer - their stuff is either going to sound good to you or it isn’t - but you have to admire their dedication to the craft of speaker building.

Regardless of whether or not you ever buy one of their products, you should be happy that companies like this are around. Any company can sell speakers (and good ones at that), but the backbone of every industry are those companies that develop, design, and build the components that drive it. Dynaudio is probably better known for their long history of supplying drivers to any number of different speaker companies than they are for their own speakers - although that's starting to change.

Building on the success of their Contour series and intended as a home theater speaker line that doesn't compromise musical performance, Dynaudio's new Contour Theater series arrives officially with the floorstanding T2.5 ($4,499/pair), the multipurposeT2.1 ($1,799), and the Contour Theater subwoofer (S2,999). Both the T2.5 and T2.1 employ a 1.1-inch soft-dome tweeter that is based on the company's highly regarded ESOTEC D260 design.

The tweeter utilizes a hybrid double-magnet system (neodymium/ferrite) with a damped rear chamber and is set into a cast-aluminum front plate for increased rigidity and cooling. Both full-range models also employ dual 6.7-inch midbass drivers with one-piece cone diaphragms made from a Dynaudio-developed magnesium-silicate polymer (MSP) to help minimize audible distortion and coloration caused by cone breakup.
