Can't find any official reviews though it doesn't surprise me for
this is an almost vintage speaker product. If you care about
natural sounding speaker that won't make you feel tired of
listening, you won't regret getting these. I have heard a lot
in audiophile circles that Dynaudios require a more potent
amplifier but one should accept this with a grain of salt.
Not entirely true because Dynaudio drivers of this kind
have never had powerful motors and manufacturer's real life
specs ( sensitivity 86 dB) is something an average audiophile
doesn't think much of, gotten used to believe in figures of 88 dB
for a 2 way 6,5" midwoofer/1" dome combo, they can hardly
be converted to think straight.

Thank you for taking the time to write down your thoughts, I whole hearty agree with you on amplifer I've used 25 watts and it has lots of power. I read the to get the best out of them u need a muscle amp I strongly disagree,what I will say is along as your amplifer is of a high quality and can reveal the source end product, I built a chip amp lm3886 chip amp and it souds great I have also noticed that this speaker vastly improves with good isolation I used Marple with rubber feet and spikes on speakers massive improvement honest wow figs and custard,

maybe its not "need" but can tolerate wider range of power . in my experience they don't power compress / IMD until much higher power levels, due mainly to the midbass 3" Voice coils and ferrofluid /metal formers in HF units.
