Everything inside the Dynaudio Contour 20i has been taken apart, re-designed, refined and reassembled. Expect more openness, more punch and more detail. Feel the goosebumps appear as you hear previously undiscovered dimensions in your favourite recordings. Transport yourself back to a time when all that mattered was the next track on the album.
With an updated tweeter, improved woofers, and crossovers – and improved thrills – Contour i takes all you've loved about the family since 1986, adds 2020 knowhow, and brings your music back to life.
We are offering these with 50% off the Dynaudio Stand 20's.
The family has been totally overhauled under the hood with advanced acoustic technology trickled down from the flagship Confidence range. The results are plain to hear.
Esotar 2i Tweeters and Woofers
Taking it from the top, the brand-new Esotar 2i tweeter on all models gains the ingenious Hexis resonance-defeating inner dome, plus a new, larger rear chamber. Together they reduce distortion and gives a flatter frequency response.
The Contour 20i, 30i and 25Ci woofers all gain an updated aramid fibre spider. It’s the same design as the 2016 Contour (with varying-width corrugations for more excursion control), but the improved material simply sounds better – the result of many hours of listening in Dynaudio Labs.
Redesigned Crossovers
Contour 20i, 30i and 25Ci have updated crossovers. And, because of the driver tweaks providing an inherently flat frequency response, it means Dynaudio has been able to remove the impedance correction circuitry for an even simpler board.
Dynaudio's engineers are inveterate tinkerers. They used everything at their disposal to make Contour i as amazing as it could be. Hours of measuring in their state-of-the-art Jupiter impulse-response room. Many more hours of listening to everything from Chopin to Slayer. And countless more of letting those massive brains come up with ingenious ways of doing things.
They’re really happy with what they’ve achieved. And we think you’ll be just as amazed when you hear Contour i for yourself.
