Is Dynaudio forgiving speakers?

I have only heard Dynaudio sound "lean" when underpowered and/or put in too large a room for the model size.

Dynaudio is one of the best I have heard at getting a lot of sound out of a smaller box but it typically requires a lot of clean power and current. Also a small monitor speaker will ALWAYS sound lean if put into a room that is too large for it.

Size (and build quality) matters. If you are able to afford the right Dynaudio model for your room and put an amp capable of driving it to the max in your room (80 w/ch or way more depending)then you should be gold. If you like the sound in general.

Regarding placement, it matters a lot with most any speaker. Dynaudios are no harder than most and probably easier than many to place optimally for most.

Very wide dispersion speakers are the most forgiving in general in regards to placement, but even those benefit from good placement. True omni speakers may be as well but only in larger rooms where distance from walls is more viable.

@Callas01: Interesting, how to know it's old or new model? There's a used pair of Focus 110 for sale.

@Mapman: From your past opinions, I'm very tempting to try Dynaudio, indeed I should at least try once to listen to it properly, I did listen to a pair of Dynaudio Audience 52, but not long enough to decide to buy it, because those songs are good mastering recording, the owner was not convenient to let me audition more songs. Do you consider Dynaudio is the best speakers brand?

@Jwm: Planar speakers, hmm, any good model to look for? Brand? I get what you mean by quieter, that's what I feel on the Wharfedale Denton, I wouldn't say it's totally free of fatigue or resonance, but it does not cross the border line. The Wharfedale Jade 3, in contrast sound noisy to me, guess I'm not capable to driver it properly.
