for the Contour 3.0
dynaudio 3.0 contour is a very good speaker but not an exellent.
i have already tried in my system many dynaudios (1,3mk2 , 2.8 , 3.0) and now i have ended owning a profesional active near field monitor (BM15a) with which i have felt in love.
The problem with the 3.0 is that it's woofers "ends" very easily by making an awfull sound like breaking. The same problem apeared also with the 1.3mk2. The only solution for that is to use very expensive and powerfull electronics. I personaly prefer alla the old krells. ( the new ones use much smt technology and sound much diffrent than the good old ones)
If you listen to a well driven dynaudio then you 'll never want to live without these speakers again. :)
Product Weakness: need very expensive amplifier Product Strengths: everything
