Audience 42 C

Audience 42 C

The Dynaudio Audience 42C Center Channel loudspeaker is also based on the drivers incorporated into the standard model 42.

These drivers, technically identical to those in the 42/42W models, exhibit the same tonal character of the above, making it the perfect center channel match for either.

It is the smaller of the two center channel offerings in the Audience range and in combination with any of the 42 model variants, it will offer a perfectly balanced and seamless integration into any compact, high-performance system based on the 42 or 42W.

It is magnetically shielded as well, ensuring that there will be no adverse affects on video performance.

With its compact size, it also can be utilized in audio/video cabinets or enclosures, offering dynamics and performance incomprehensible for a product of its modest dimensions.
