Dynaudio Evoke 10 High-end compact speakers (Pair)

Dynaudio has been creating speakers that perform out of all proportion to their physical size for over 40 years, and Evoke 10 is no exception. These are serious hi-fi… built for serious entertainment.

Each speaker’s single 14cm long-throw mid/bass driver is made from MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer), just like all Dynaudio speakers have used for decades. They use new surrounds to extend their throw, their frequency response, and their low-frequency dynamics – all while maintaining stellar midrange performance.

The diaphragm is 0.4mm thin, which provides exactly the right combination of lightness, stiffness, and damping to ensure optimum performance. It’s made of one piece (the dust-cap is part of the playing surface), and is bonded directly to the rigid glass-fiber voice-coil former directly under the Balance Ribs you’ll see around the centre dome. That means the whole unit moves as one, in a predictable (and carefully tuned) way, for a performance that strikes the ideal balance between bass and midrange.

The 38mm voice-coil itself is made from aluminium, making it extremely light. That means more windings. More windings give the speakers more control over the cone’s movement, which means more control over the sound – even at high volumes and high frequencies. It’s kept stable, centered and true by the Nomex spider (the circular spring assembly that stops the cone moving when it shouldn’t, and lets it move when it should).

And the whole assembly is driven by one of Dynaudio's new, powerful strontium carbonate Ferrite+ ceramic magnet systems.
