Dynaudio Confidence 20i

A floorstander in a standmount

Confidence 20i compresses an almost unreasonable amount of engineering into a very small space. The Esotar 3i neodymium tweeter delivers all the sweet accuracy you’d expect, while its new DDC Lens expands the soundstage and ensures that more of the performance is aimed at you, not the rest of your room.

The 18cm NeoTec MSP woofer uses a rigid glass-fibre voice-coil former and a lightweight aluminium voice-coil. Together, they keep the driver light, stiff and well-damped. You’ll hear that as powerful, controlled bass and tight, refined midrange.

Engineered bass

The bass-port works with the stand as part of a single, engineered system. It fires downwards, then sideways – meaning Confidence 20i is far more forgiving when it comes to placement. Even close to a wall.

Together, the woofer and port deliver the kind of punch you’d expect from a much larger loudspeaker.

Reductive engineering

Confidence 20i’s deceptively simple crossover integrates the tweeter and woofer with the kind of precision you’ll hear immediately. In fact, we challenge you to try to hear where one driver ends and the other begins. It also gives Confidence 20i consistent performance in different rooms – whether that’s the demo room or your living room.

How does all that engineering sound? Exactly like your music.
