Proac response 2.5 or Dynaudio Special 25

Yashu I was in a hurry with that last post. What electronics did you hear the S25's with. In my preferences if the electronics are very detailed even my C1's wouldn't be as enjoyable. There is a lot in between. I have read in the Dynaudio owners thread on Avsforum that the S25's can be more picky as far as placement too.

No flames please regarding the Sim Audio/Classe comment. They are just not cup of tea (too detailed for my personal taste in long term listening). I'm a tube dude.

Funny you should dis on Simaudio with Dynaudio. I personally really liked the duo of Simaudio i5.3 and the Dyanudio Contour T2.5 that was my preference for quite some time in bedroom system. I now am just about as happy with the Xeo 3 in my bedroom and so much simpler, just 2 speakers and no huge rack of gear. I went from a system that retailed for almost 5X the price as the Xeos and have just as much enjoyment now. At any rate I think you will be interested in checking out Dyanudio. There are not to many listeners who will say the genuinely don't like Dynaudio.

I'm not using Simaudio.
My system is Jeff Rowland Concentra integrated, with Arcam FMJ cd23, with the Proac response 2.5.

So much I like about Dynaudio sp25 but they just don't draw me in like Proac. Perhaps I should forget about upgrading the speakers and just continue to enjoy what I have. Just have had the bug for new speakers.

Should the Dynaudio be as engaging? And what about Dynaudio c1?

Ejlif My first experience with Dynaudio was at my dealer who had Sim Audio stack as his premium set up. I brought my 20 + year old Mission 782's to compare. It was the comparison that made me fall in love with the Dyn's. Like I said (or maybe didn't) The Sim was great with control but so detailed I couldn't live with that for the long term. Same thing when I heard Classe Omega mono blocks driving B&W 802d's. Again great control and detail but what I found was I was listening to individual instruments and vocals saying WOW. But for me I just couldn't hear the music as a whole because of all the individual sounds being so detailed.

That being said that was the 'sound' I 'thought' I wanted when I first started my audio journey. After listening to a modest Naim 5i I found myself listening to the music and noticed my toes a tappin. That was the day I decided I didn't care for all the detail. I wasn't until I listened to the Octave V70se did I hear the music with control.

Well that's my story as to why detail isn't my cup of tea

Should the Dynaudio be as engaging? And what about Dynaudio c1?

Well I'm biased because I do have the C1 Signatures because to me and my taste the C1's are much more engaging. If you have the opportunity give the C1's a listen and decide from there.
