Review 1 of 6
Price Paid:
$0.00 Summary:
One of the best monitor you can buy.
The other monitor speaker I own is a pair of the B&W 805 Signature Bird Eye is also beautiful. But in terms of soundstage, bass, dynamics, more neutral, focus and musicality the Dynaudio is clearly a winner.
You don't need a hefty amp for the S1.4. I 've tried several poweramps. This speaker sings(of course) with the Levinson No. 27, but also with the unbeatable price/ sound quality more than 20 years old Rotel RB 850 poweramp with only 50 wpc.

Review 2 of 6
Price Paid:
$2500.00 Summary:
Fantastic speakers, incredible bass and dynamics, great midrange and highs. It does everything well and sounds huge. They pretty much sound like floorstanders. I'm too lazy to write a full review so that's the capsule version. Strengths:
They do everything well except deep deep bass. Weaknesses:
You need a hefty amp. Think at least 100 watts. preferably 200watts and high current. But they're like Frankenstein's monster, give em current and they come alive alive alive.

Review 3 of 6
Price Paid:
$3000.00 Summary:
What can be said about these Danish speakers, energetic,vivid,direct. The 1.4's give a big deep soundstage, the bass is powerful and deep and congeal well with the highs. The esotech tweeter gives brilliant highs that never sounds laid back or soft.
The 1.4 also love good amplification, 100w or more will suffice in a medium to large room.
The stands are an integral part of these speakers, without them they would loose there sexy appeal.
Defiantly worth your hard earned dollars Strengths:
Sound quality, build, Weaknesses:
None, wonderful speaker for the cost Similar Products Used:
Thiel 1.6, sonus faber, B&W 805

Review 4 of 6
Price Paid:
$2100.00 Summary:
I can only say that dynaudio did it again! This product is again a best seller. I have owned the contour 1.1 the 1.3 and the 1.8. I always loved monitors because I am not a real bas freak. On the other hand it is always a miracle how low these monitors go.
If you want a monitor speaker which can take everything and sounds like heaven try these! Combine them with the Stand 4 from Dynaudio.
Oh almost forgot: they need good amplification. I have a Accuphase E-407 and that works!!
Only problem I have is that the grain is not matching. Dynaudio always deliver a pair that has the same structure but this pair is not quite matching. Hope they are willing to solve this problem!
Strengths:
open sound stage , imaging , bass extension for a stand-mounter , sweet treble and much much more!!!!
Weaknesses:
Nothing I did not mention already Similar Products Used:
Dynaudio 1.1, 1.3 , 1.8

Review 5 of 6
Price Paid:
$4500.00
from Code-M Summary:
These carry the Dynaudio pedigree through and through. They sound VERY neutral, with excellent top to bottom integration, and image brilliantly. They are ideal for medium sized rooms-say up 80 cubic meters in volume and must be placed away from room boundaries in order to get a neutral frequency response with a natural bass extention. They crave power and must be mated with at least 100 of solid watts. Voice reproduction and piano are handled exquisitely.
Although they go down to 40 hz. , a good subwoofer, such as the REL strata compliments them brilliantly, as do first class ancillary equipment and cabling. Strengths:
Pin point imagry, neutrality,finish. Weaknesses:
Slightly bright whem compared to the Dynaudio Confidence C4. Not the most exciting speakers. Similar Products Used:
Confidence C4, Spendor LS35a, Contour 3.3, Quad ESL 63, Yamaha NS1000.
