Dynaudio Confidence 20- Owners Thoughts?

I appreciate your feedback. The speakers have yet to arrive so I have yet to hear them. 
 

The review in What HiFi and the Zero Fidelity review agrees that speaker could use more “verve” and dilutes the emotional experience when listening. 
 

Does anyone else find this? They aren’t “rhythmic” to listen to?

I guess this is one of the challenges of using language to describe subjective experience as I can’t quite understand how a speaker they describe as detailed, natural, accurate with excellent treble, mids, and bass can be lacking in emotional conveyance. 
 

I’d appreciate any explanations as to what it is the speakers are missing or what exactly they are describing as missing. 
 

Happy listening!

Hi All,

The speakers arrived yesterday and I have been playing them and listening as they burn in. They sound quite good at this point, to be honest. I have had new speakers in the past that sounded horrible right out of the box, so I'm surprised the Dynaudios sound so good so soon. Anyone have any experience how they sound with more playing time on them? Is there much change with more hours on them? The may sound a wee bit bright, a little closed in, and not a lot of bass at this point, to my ears and in my room, but certainly not harsh or muddy or unlistenable.

What is the supporting gear and cables in front of these speakers? I had mine paired with Sugden Class A mono blocks, Saturn Audio power conditioner, DAC & phono stage. All WireWorld Cables. Except speaker cables at the time were Madison Audio Lab Extreme 1 cables. They were magnificent speakers, took several hours to get them placed correctly, they were everything I had hoped for, and were going to be my end game speakers. I now have the confidence 30's and those are my end game speakers now.  

The 20's had fast articulate deep bass, the tweeters were not bright or fatiguing at all. Do you have access to different speaker cables? What room treatment do you have? Do you have the speakers positioned correctly?

I only have about 5 hours on them at this point so I’m more curious about others experience with burn in with the speakers as I have just wanted to give them a bit of time and hear what they can do. Did you find there was burn in with these speakers and sound changed? I have heard speakers change with a few hours on them...just curious what others experience with the confidence 20 is with burn in. I wasn’t planning on getting too fussy about exact placement until they have few more hours on them. They are 25 inches out from the front wall and about 6.5 feet apart, well away from side walls.

Associated equipment is Rega planar 3 with Ortofon 2M black cartridge, NAD cd to mueatex dac, Bryston BP20 preamp. Cables are audioquest water, speaker cable is Kimber 8TC.

Ok I measured my room again, and found my old placement numbers.  From the back of the wall to the front of the speaker is 40 inches, they are 9 feet apart tweeter to tweeter, and 2 feet from the side walls to the tweeter. I sit 9 feet back from them.
