Overview

Confidence 20i is the compact standmount loudspeaker in the Dynaudio Confidence i family. It combines the Esotar 3i tweeter, Dynaudio Directivity Control (DDC 3.0) and an upgraded crossover in a two-way passive design.

And it’s been created to give you goosebumps.

Features

Concentrated listening
‘Compact’, in this case, refers only to size. Confidence 20i has been designed specifically to distil the power and presence of the Confidence i series into a format that fits comfortably in a smaller room, without shrinking the performance.
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.
Designed and engineered in Denmark
We put Confidence through intensive –and exhaustive –testing in the Jupiter measuring facility at Dynaudio Labs. Hundreds of hours of analysis and listening have resulted in the best speaker we’ve ever created.
Esotar3 tweeter
The legend continues. The Esotar3 is optimised for detail, finesse and performance. It includes the ingenious Hexis resonance-defeating inner dome, plus innovations in materials, airflow and more.
NeoTec woofers
We’ve taken our legendary MSP woofers to new heights. A combination of powerful neodymium magnets and aluminium and copper voice-coils mean each driver is individually engineered and tuned for one purpose: unsurpassed quality.
