Advanced Technology for Professional Monitoring

For most professional studio engineers, the very idea of a compact, 7" 3-way studio monitor sounds nearly impossible. Leave it to Dynaudio to show us how it's done. With extraordinary clarity, tons of headroom, and unbelievable definition across the frequency spectrum, engineers here ?have found Core 47 studio monitors show exactly what you can pack in a reasonably small studio monitor.   Highlights of the Dynaudio Core 47 include a 3-way design, with a 7" low-frequency and a 4" midrange MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) driver, and a 1" Esotar Pro tweeter. These speakers are tri-amped for a total of 1,150 watts (500W + 500W + 150W) of amplification ? a recipe for extreme headroom. Between its cutting edge waveguide and front-facing bass reflux design, you'll get the kind of focused full-range sound you'd expect from a 2.1 stereo setup, and a wide sweet spot that doesn't sacrifice an iota of stereo imaging. And between extremely flexible mounting options and stellar onboard digital conversion, Dynaudio Core 47 studio monitors are among the finest we've heard.  

Esotar Pro tweeter

We know that listening fatigue is the bane of every studio engineer?s existence. Once it sets in, you?re done working for the day. Dynaudio?s Esotar Pro tweeter features an ingenious component ? the Hexis device, an inner dome that sits just behind the diaphragm and optimizes airflow, smooths out the frequency response, and eliminates undesirable internal resonances. The result is exemplary imaging, superb transient detail, and effortless extended high-frequency response.  

Proprietary MSP drivers

The Core 47?s 7" low-frequency and 4" midrange drivers represent another technological leap forward. Incorporating Dynaudio?s proprietary MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) cone material along with an aluminum voice coil, glass-fiber former, and advanced magnet design, the MSP mid/woofer delivers incredible accuracy throughout its frequency range. MSP provides the best combination of lightness, stiffness, and damping ? enabling it to produce tight, deep bass as well as natural midrange detail ? all in a single driver for the best imaging and point source localization.  

Flexible positioning

To account for placement in a variety of environments ? on their sides, vertically, or perhaps even inverted ? Dynaudio gave the Core 47 cabinet indentations on all four sides to accommodate special Dynaudio pads that protect the cabinet?s finish and stabilize the speaker on the mounting surface. Core 47 is also compatible with standard VESA mounting brackets or Dynaudio?s custom K&M bracket should you wish to mount them on a wall or ceiling as part of a multichannel or immersive-format monitor system such as Dolby ATMOS.  

Precise input sensitivity and output SPL calibration

The noise floor and signal resolution of any monitoring system is critical to its performance. Whether you?re using the Core 47?s analog or digital inputs, you need to be able to control the gain staging between the monitor controller and the speaker system. To that end, Dynaudio gives you a range of 0dBu to +24dBu to match the analog input sensitivity to the output level. Once optimized, the Core 47 processes all analog signals at a 192kHz sampling rate and 64-bit resolution in the DSP (from the 24-bit A/D converter) for the highest degree of mathematical precision.   There?s also a switch to determine the maximum output SPL with the greatest bit depth in the DSP. For the maximum level, set it to 112dB. If you tend to work at quieter levels, choose a lower SPL setting to optimize the bit depth of the DSP for both inputs. When using the AES digital inputs, you must determine which channel (left or right) of the AES stream is used for that monitor. Core 47?s DSP operates at the incoming sample rate and either locks to the digital audio clock or word clock to maintain the most accurate signal possible.   Dynaudio Core 47 Powered Studio Monitor Features:
