Dynaudio c1 signature

Raindog Haven't heard back again from the Distributor regarding if that is the only change. Anyhow my black/chrome stands are staying. They just look too d@mn good with the Signatures.

Paul - the stand4 doesn't ring when empty due to the way the bases are constructed. At least that is what I have found. When filled they give a more forward presentation with cleaner and tighter tones. That is why I have mine only partially filled. Personally I'm not a fan of too forward or I may have considered something more like the S25's.

No Logo is the ONLY difference

Xti16, of course the stands will not produce an audible ring when one listens to music. However, one will be able to pick up some standing waves, i.e. ring, when placing a stethoscope on one of the stands - it is an empty pipe ... That is why I said the comment in the article was nonsense.

Raindog031, the Dynaudio Stand 4 are very good stands which also happened to be very earthly priced (especially when compared to the Focal stands for example). I do not think there was anything that really needed to be improved about them.

On a different matter, last week I have seen on www.audiomarkt.de a pair of C1 mk2 with stands for 4300 euros, there were also a few mk1s for sell. Of course, I am not the one who sells any of those speakers :).

Also, sorry for diverting, but I was wondering whether any of you guys have
had the chance to listen the Vapor Cirrus and/or Vivid Audio B1 or V1 speakers. I keep reading that these speakers are the best "monitors" available.

Keep us posted Raindog031!

yes dyn stands are double cheaper than SF stand 4-5 times cheaper than Focal...diablo utopia with stands are 3k euros expensiver than c1...does it makes better...no...i think their quest for berillyum tweeter was expensive so now they are overpricing their speakers to get the cash back(manny cash goes on focals luxtry looks also) im not sayin that focal is trash...i like focal...but i would rather go on esotar2 and dyns sound more full bodied...less detailed...more real by my taste...every speaker driver etc. has its weakness and good things so you cant tell witch is best speaker...you can only choose witch sounds best to your ears...i doubt i would be not satisfied with B&W805D or diablo or dyns or SF guarneri M...but dyns are priced somwhere in middle...and its not 2forward or laid back speaker...just in middle...and i think i will manage to push more volume with dyns without problems(not to mention barr response)...Nvp ive heard vivids are bang 4 the buck regarding the sound...manny liked vivid more then dyns on forums...but vivid bookshelf is little shy on bass and got strange looks for many...i dont have vivid dealer in croatia...but i was interested to hear them...i think they are made in south africa...

i would rather go on esotar2 and dyns sound more full bodied

for that reason don't forget check out Harbeth SHL5.You may be surprised how good they sound for the money and much more.Because for me they sound even fullier than C1 at normal listening levels
