The most refined and best sounding Confidence C1 ever
The Confidence C1 delivers a level of musical performance and sonic refinement that is unequalled by any other loudspeaker in its class. The distinctive slim cabinet incorporates the advanced Esotar² tweeter, a mid/bass driver with aluminium voice coil on a Kapton former, plus the highest quality 1st order cross-over.
The C1 can be mounted directly onto the Stand4 for a synergy of performance and design. With the latest fine-tuning, the new Confidence C1 II and C1 Signature is the best sounding and most refined compact Confidence ever.
The Confidence Signature project was inspired by Dynaudio's founder Wilfried Ehrenholz. He has always had the ambition of one day making the best even better.
Itself a perfect example of Dynaudio’s tradition of producing incredible compact speakers, the C1 II serves as an ideal building-block for any high-end music or home theater system.
A new, higher level of fine-tuning and the experience gained from creating the exceptional Dynaudio Sapphire and Consequence Ultimate Edition have helped yield this most refined Confidence II and Signature edition. Incorporating select high-performance woofers, and the finest hand-crafted wood veneer finishes, the new Confidence models have been further refined.
Every model incorporates Dynaudio's finest Esotar² with neodymium magnet. In its newest version, it is further optimized via Dynaudio's precision coating, improving the exceptionally smooth response and the authentic reproduction of all fine musical details.
The crossover has been further optimized, while the internal wiring has been upgraded. With these upgrades, the second-generation model designations are now Confidence II and Confidence Signature.
Aesthetically pure yet technically advanced – the C1 II combines a unique slim cabinet with an innovative baffle design. In the Confidence, a completely new design-concept defines the front of the loudspeaker as a design element in its own right. The multiple-layer high-density baffle yields extremely low-resonance and de-couples the loudspeaker drivers from the cabinet itself.
The Confidence Signature models are exclusively available in dark-brown Mocca or dark-red Bordeaux realwood finished with high gloss piano lacquer and proudly feature an aluminium backplate plate adorned with the signature of Dynaudio's founder and sole owner, Wilfried Ehrenholz.

REVIEWS & AWARDS
Confidence C4, Audiophile, 2012
" (..) the Dynaudio Confidence C4 explodes the limits of the traditional."
"The sound of the Confidence C1 Signature is
however beyond any doubt sublime: with this special edition
model Dynaudio is taking the art of minimalist
speaker design to new heights."
„The Confidence C1 delivers world-class performance in a real-world package. If you value openness and tonal clarity, the C1 is a contender. It will mate with small to midsize rooms in ways that larger speakers simply can't (yes, you can have too much loudspeaker), and it won't be overwhelmed by large spaces.”
