Dynaudio Brings ‘Excite’-ment to New Speaker Line

Dynaudio’s Excite speaker set

The Excite series from Dynaudio includes five models ranging from the $850 X22 center channel to $3,600 per pair X36 floor-standing towers.

Anything new from audiophile loudspeaker manufacturer Dynaudio is reason enough to be excited. The Danish company really wants to “Excite” listeners with its latest speaker series—the appropriately named Excite.

The series was designed to take advantage of just about any amplifier or receiver’s power, not just the typical audiophile-grade amps, while converting every watt into pure music, the company says.

Longer linear excursions of the voice coil allow for great dynamic range—especially at high volumes, Dynaudio notes—and die-cast aluminum frame baskets and MSP (magnesium silicate polymer) membranes provide rigidity and inner damping so you won’t have unwanted resonance and vibrations.

The Excite has five models, each available in rosewood, cherry, black ash or maple real-wood finishes. Here’s the skinny:

• Excite X36: 3-way floor-standing, dual 18-cm woofers, 11-cm midrange; $3,600 per pair
• Excite X32: 2-way floor-standing, dual 14.5-cm mid/bass; $2,800 per pair
• Excite X22 Center: center speaker with dual 11-cm mid/bass; $850 each
• Excite X16: 2-way compact speaker, 18-cm mid/bass; $1,600 per pair
• Excite X12: 2-way compact speaker, 14.5-cm mid/bass; $1,200 per pair

Expect the Excite series available beginning in June.
