The Esotar2 tweeter has always been a favorite of mine and did not disappoint in the least. The bass was clean and tight and dug deeper than I expected. This is not fair to say as I am going on ancient memory and different gear, different room BUT I will say it anyway. The Contour 20 sounded as good as, if not better than, the original Confidence C1 speakers I used to own. Looks like I will be ordering a pair of Contour 30s in gloss white.

Hi Jason,

Looking forward to your review on the Dynaudio Contour 30. I have the Contour 60 on my short list that I'm trying to find a dealer that has them available to audition.
