I got these last week. And your right the tweeter is the star of the show here. Makes some really sweet sounding mids. I have them hooked up with my Fisher 400. A decent combination.
This might sound weird but the new studio not only enhances the viewing experience but compliments Matt’s voice and tone. Have always enjoyed your videos but this is definitely an improvement. Thank you for doing all this for the rest of us who are not audiophiles but are interested in learning.
@@peterjohnson8631 well my dear sir! If you have liked quality audio equipment for the last 40 years and have always purchased quality audio equipment and doing your research, you get to know and appreciate when quality parts and equipment is produced. Don’t only take my word for it but do your own research and read reviews and make your own judgment and hopefully nobody will judge you for giving your opinion.
Hello, surely a very basic question for you. It is better to control the volume from the Dac or from the amplifier in the case of both having the same one.
You would generally want run your Pre-amp DAC to something like 90% volume and then adjust gain on the amp. Generally, amps for the home don't have gain adjustment.
Dynaudio you can not go wrong simple, I have the evoke 20 in a blond finish very pretty speakers but there not all show and know trousers these things pack a serious punch on the end of the right amp. And your going to need an amp with a lot of current to really make them sing look know further than "naim" or Hegel in my opinion 2 power house brands of Europe....
The previous gen Emit were also made in China and they sound nearly identical (I can't tell a difference) to the DM made in Denmark. Nothing wrong with made in China here.
So is it a fair assumption the Emit 20 is a Evoke 20 but made with less expensive cabinets and lower cost labor but essentially a Evoke 20 built at a lower cost?

You can't buy audio equipment off a video. Unless you can demo in your own room and compare then you are wasting your time; hearing is subjective and what sounds good to you or I doesn't to others. Define your application and budget and then listen to as many speakers as you can. KEF, Focal, RBH, B&W, NHT, Def Tech, JTR, ELAC, Revel, Paradigm, etc. all make great speakers.
I own the first gen Dali Opticon 2 speakers. But find them a little bit to sharp on the ears on higher volumes. Will the Emit 20 be better then the Opticon 2?
Hey dont know if this is too late but, I did own Evoke 20 for a couple of months before selling them. I do own Opticon 1 mk1. And other Dali speakers. To me even the evoke 20 do sound like they have a blanket in front of them, in the midrange, compared to Dali speakers, but they probably have what you seek. They are by no means sharp sounding in my experience. Also Dali seem to have a wider sound dispersion, so to speak a very different soundstage, which I prefer. Evoke definetly have impressive low end response for their size. All testet on NAD C399.
I think I'd rather have the bigger Emit in between those two. The Emit and Evoke sound rather similar, so I'd rather sacrifice the quality of cabinet and components a bit for the size and presence of the larger floor standing speaker.
The M20 were designed before Dynaudio Jupiter measurement system was built. The 20 came out after and it appears it will measure better than the old M20. The face of the 20/10 is much cleaner looking than the M20/10. They hid all the fastener heads and used magnetic grills.
You could stick a pair of cheap $100 Edifier speakers in my face and compare them to Harbeth’s $20k speakers and I’d be like “okay, so?”. I’m not an audiophile. I like to have reliable sound and for the speakers to look nice. If they cost $X then that’s what I’m spending … everything else is white noise to me. My garage does NOT deserve dedicated speakers, I use a Bose Bluetooth speaker. But it’d be nice to have something like this if I ever get around to remodeling the garage.
Dynaudio makes excellent speakers for sure. I just don't see the need for expensive audio equipment in my garage/shop. When I'm in my garage/shop i'm there to work.....not to listen to music. No need for "audiophile" equipment when it's just being used for background music, podcasts or news.
Nah, you just have a prejudice and stereotype assigned to that. 90% of technology and almost all semiconductors are out of that area and they are some of the hardest things to manufacture.

I thought he was in a kitchen
Watching this review on my Dynaudio Evoke 20s. These are definitely worth keeping for life..
Good vid, thanks. I picked up an immaculate pair of walnut 20's for 700, can't wait to get them hooked up.
Now I really want a pair!! Great video guys.
love my older emit m10s with an audiolab 6000a play
I am liking the quality and appreciate the magnetic grill and tweeter cover.
@@peterjohnson8631 no, I did not buy any but I appreciate good quality and those are quality speakers.
@@peterjohnson8631 that’s right.

Have you heard Emit20? If so, how does it compare with Evoke20?
The previous gen Emit were also made in China and they sound nearly identical (I can't tell a difference) to the DM made in Denmark. Nothing wrong with made in China here.
Agreed
Mine says made in Denmark 🇩🇰
Nope, you wrong, the previous series of Emit, M10, wasn't made in China but In Denmark, at their home.
The emit 20 here in Australia have a retail price of $1,699
So is it a fair assumption the Emit 20 is a Evoke 20 but made with less expensive cabinets and lower cost labor but essentially a Evoke 20 built at a lower cost?
It's not quite that simple. Different cabinet, tweeter, crossover, cabinet.

Thanks for the reply.
Would you recommend the Emit 10 or PSB P5 for like hip hop and electronic music? can use them with a NAD D3045 ;)
They will both do pretty similarly. I’d really want a sub for that.

If you are a cheap nerd, then yes. If you aren't, you can just listen to me, and I will tell you what to do.
@@ObsessedGarage i guess that attitude comes with the money.. well deserved though! :)
@@ObsessedGarage I wouldn't put JTR or Revel and cheap in the same sentence.
Kef ls50 metas are 🔥
I totally agree.
How do you see them combined with an audiolab 8300A and a Cambridge Audio Dacmagic 200m Dac?
does dynaudio emit 20 2x sounds better than psb p5?
I own the first gen Dali Opticon 2 speakers. But find them a little bit to sharp on the ears on higher volumes. Will the Emit 20 be better then the Opticon 2?

Bonjour , faut mieux les nouvelles emit10 ou ancienne emit20? jai 20 metre carré
What would you suggest between Emit 50 and Evoke 20 costwise and performance..
I think I'd rather have the bigger Emit in between those two. The Emit and Evoke sound rather similar, so I'd rather sacrifice the quality of cabinet and components a bit for the size and presence of the larger floor standing speaker.
how do they differ from evoke except for the finish of the case?
Would you recommended the Evoke 25c inplace of the emit 20 for beginning?
The 25c is the center channel. You'd want to start with bookshelf speakers.
Dynaudio Emit M20 vs Dynaudio Emit 20 ? What's better?
There is no such speaker that I am aware.
The M20 were designed before Dynaudio Jupiter measurement system was built. The 20 came out after and it appears it will measure better than the old M20. The face of the 20/10 is much cleaner looking than the M20/10. They hid all the fastener heads and used magnetic grills.
Any opinions on pairing the emit 20s with the powernode from bluesound?
That is a great combo.
Hi. Any opinions on pairing the emit20 with Nad c700 ?
That would be a pretty amazing set-up. I’d highly recommend that combo.
I think the opposite , the walnut are much better and scratch resistance then the black ver.
6000a enough to push emit 20?
Where's the demo?
In his head.
Anybody know if the Rotel A11 Tribute would drive these ok?
Yeah, I think you’d be good.
@@ObsessedGarage thanks
The “old” made in Denmark Emit 10 was built much better. Painted and no seams.

You should make your own sub enclosures. WAY cheaper, custom, and overall better.
Matt has
Make them match the cabinets
@@ollyolyoxenfree Oh never knew that. Just started watching these recently
Build your own car as well
Been there, done that, not as good. Not even close.
E36 M3 update?
Stop making excuses for Chinese manufacturers, Americans and European manufacturers or buyers are subject to propaganda
Doing to much my brother. 🤣🤣
More expensive than the old ones that were made in Skanderborg …
That's because the driver and new tweeter
Chinese manufacturing is sub par. Let's not tell any other fairytales Matt.
