PLACEMENT
The Confidence range consists of classic bass reflex
loudspeaker designs with no unusual or extraordinary
positioning demands, neither in stereo nor in multi
channel applications, due to the highly advanced driver
and crossover technology engineered into these
models.
The Confidence C2, C4 and Center models feature the
new DDC (Dynaudio Directivity Control) technology,
which reduces room reflections and thus the influence
of room acoustics on the loudspeakers’ performance,
and therefore enables a high sound quality to be reali-
zed in any individual room. By implementing a vertical-
ly symmetric driver arrangement with a highly advan-
ced crossover network, DDC minimizes reflections
from the critical floor and ceiling surfaces. As such, the
Dynaudio Confidence models are much easier to posi-
tion than other high-end loudspeaker products.
The compact Confidence C1, due to its size and near
field positioning associated with such, is much less
affected by vertical reflections, but nonetheless deli-
vers optimized dispersion through its inverted driver
array, emmulating the effects of a DDC configuration
to achieve a neutral response in any room.
Every room will still have its own particular sound cha-
racteristics as shaped by its own acoustic properties.
Any room is also shaped and decorated uniquely, and
therefore remains quite independent regarding options
for positioning loudspeakers. We advise that you con-
sult your trained Dynaudio dealer for further assistance
in order to experience the highest level of sound quali-
ty from the Confidence loudspeakers in your home.
The following steps are general suggestions that will
make the correct positioning easier to achieve:
