Dynaudio Contour 30i

Dynaudio Contour 30i - Dedikeret til detaljerne

Dynaudio Contour 30i er steppet op fra 20i, og tilbyder en større, mere musikalsk, gennemsigtig underholdende lyd. De deler selvfølgelig stadig den samme lydsignatur, men oplevelsen er mere fuldendt og sammenhængende, fordi gulvhøjtalerens fysik gør den i stand til at gengive alle musikkens aspekter - heriblandt særligt de dybeste oktaver i musikken. Contour 30i er et tro mod musikken og kunstnerens intentioner, hvilket skyldes en kombination af Dynaudio's omhyggelige materialevalg og det faktum, at det meste musik er masteret på Dynaudio højtalere. Numrene lyder bare rigtigt med Contour 30i, så det eneste du behøver tænke på er, hvilket nummer du skal lytte til som det næste.

Ligesom resten af den nye Contour i-familie har 30i den helt nye Esotar 2i diskant, som har den indvendige Hexis kuppel, der findes i hele Dynaudio's flagskibs Confidence-serie og professionelle studiereferencemonitorer. Trickle-down tech er en fantastisk ting, ikke sandt? Esotar 2i har også fået et nyt og større bagkammer. Dette er sammen med Hexis med til at reducere uønskede resonanser og udjævner frekvensresponsen for endnu klarere højfrekvenser.

Key features of Contour 30i

• New Esotar 2i tweeter 
  Featuring a larger rear chamber and now the Hexis inner dome, which helps to reduce unwanted resonances and flatten the frequency response
• New spider
  New asymmetric spider for increased system symmetry – and this one is made from aramid fibres for improved acoustic response
• New crossover
  Extensive tweaks from the 2016 Contour model have led to a simpler, cleaner, and even better-performing unit
• Voice coil
  Large diameter, long throw aluminium voice-coils

What has been improved?

We’ve endowed Contour 30 with two 18cm MSP drivers, as well as doubling up on the rear ports. Behind the scenes we’ve tweaked the spider suspension (the springy ring that keeps the woofer in the right place when it’s at rest, and controls it in the right way when it’s moving). This one is made from aramid fibres, and retains the ingenious structural properties from before (the ribs are of varying width to give even finer control over the cone’s excursion).

Contour 30i continues to use aluminium voice-coils, too. We can make them extremely light – but also bigger than the old-style copper units you’ll find elsewhere. Lighter weight allows larger diameters with more windings, yet low weight, which means we have more control over the cone movement. And that means more control over the sound – especially at high frequencies and high volumes – exactly what you need in a mid/bass driver. Sure, we experimented with small voice-coils on the new Contour – the size other companies might use. The measurements said they should work for Contour. Our ears said otherwise, so we went big. Our ears were right.

And, as with Contour 20i, the flatter frequency response from the improved tweeter and mid/bass drivers means we’ve been able to simplify the crossover. Not that it wasn’t elegant before – but now… well, we’ll let you judge.

Improved crossover

The improved crossover no longer needs impedance correction circuitry to optimise its performance – that’s all now done in the driver itself, simply down to the physical properties of the materials we use. Fewer components, cleaner signal path, better performance.

While our engineers and designers were hunkered down listening to everything from jazz, to classical, to metal, to electronica, the team in our on-site factory were scouring sustainable sources for high-quality materials and finishes. They make sure all Contours are furniture-grade: perfectly built, perfectly finished and perfectly packaged.
