The Dynaudio Contour 30 is a high-performance floorstanding speaker designed for mid-size rooms, delivering power, control, and elegance. It features two 18cm Magnesium Silicate Polymer (MSP) drivers with variable thickness diaphragms and aluminium voice coils for reduced mass and improved control. The speaker uses the ultra-pure Esotar 2 fabric soft-dome tweeter, regarded as one of the world's best, positioned above the mid/bass drivers for optimal sound dispersion. The design includes a rear-ported bass reflex box principle and a 2.5-way crossover topology with a 1st order tweeter and 2nd order woofer crossover at 300 Hz and 2200 Hz respectively. The crossover uses high-quality Mundorf capacitors and air-core inductors, simplifying the design and enhancing performance. The Contour 30 has a frequency response of 32 Hz to 23 kHz (-3 dB), sensitivity of 87 dB (2.83V/1m), IEC power handling of 300 watts, and a rated impedance of 4 ohms. The cabinet is furniture-grade with a refined finish, measuring 215 x 1170 x 360 mm and weighing 34.4 kg. The Contour 30 has been succeeded by the Contour 30i model but remains highly regarded for its transparency, dynamic range, and holographic sound projection, suitable for a wide range of music genres and amplifier pairings.
