A masterclass in music
Confidence i makes you feel. It’s as simple as that.
It doesn’t matter how rational, or objective, or serious, or analytical you are. Listen to them and the primeval part of your brain will take the wheel. There’s nothing you can do about it. And why would you want to?
This is how music should be heard: with all the emotion the performers put into it, nothing lost, nothing added.
Confidence i has been designed from top to bottom as the reference for high-end passive home audio. It's a speaker that leaves you only one way to get closer to the performance: be at the performance.

Eight years in R&D
Confidence has been the benchmark – and an object of audio lust – since 2018. But laurels aren’t for resting on; limits are meant to be pushed. Eight years of dedicated R&D has shown that it really is possible to improve on perfection – and that you really can cause goosebumps to rise on the arms of a seasoned acoustic engineer.
In pursuit of perfect
There is always more to discover in a piece of music, and to uncover that ‘more’, accuracy is non-negotiable. The new Esotar 3i tweeter is the best high-frequency driver we’ve made so far: built for nuance, precision and power. And enchantment. That’s thanks to improvements in the magnet assembly and a new, carefully composed recipe for the ferrofluid in the motor system.
It’s still the sweet, easy-to-listen-to Esotar sound you know and love, but now it delivers even more detail; the kind that reveals even more of your music – no matter how well you know it.
More to hear
A room can dramatically influence a speaker’s performance – which is why Confidence doesn’t let it. Dynaudio Directivity Control (DDC) appeared in 1999’s Evidence speakers and 2001’s Confidence C2 and C4, then received an overhaul in the 2018 Confidence. The system is designed to beam sound directly to you, in your chair, instead of letting it bounce off the floor and ceiling. That means you hear more of what your speaker is playing, and less of what your room tries to add to the performance.
DDC has now reached version 3.0. The new DDC Lens on Confidence 30i and Confidence 50i has been redesigned for even better horizontal dispersion and a wider, deeper soundstage. Meanwhile, Confidence 20i has a brand-new DDC Lens to really make its Esotar 3i tweeter sing.
Nothing in the way
We strive for simplicity. Confidence i’s new crossover has been stripped down and optimised for directivity, an even power response and improved dynamics. We worked with our friends at Duelund to upgrade the capacitors, and worked with ourselves to invent an entirely new component – the patent-pending Dynaudio UltraPrecision Array resistor.
It lets us create a bespoke, almost infinitely accurate resistor with tolerances more than ten times tighter than off-the-shelf components. You’ll hear the result immediately. It’s the kind of clarity and dynamics that keep you listening long after you forget the speakers are even there.

Features
Designed and engineered in Denmark
We put Confidence through intensive –and exhaustive –testing in the Jupiter measuring facility at Dynaudio Labs. Hundreds of hours of analysis and listening have resulted in the best speaker we’ve ever created.
Esotar3 tweeter
The legend continues. The Esotar3 is optimised for detail, finesse and performance. It includes the ingenious Hexis resonance-defeating inner dome, plus innovations in materials, airflow and more.
Next-gen DDC technology
Dynaudio Directivity Control, our sound-shaping technology platform, has been rebooted, revamped and refined to include the DDC Lens –a unique machined waveguide that focuses your music exactly where it should go: your ears.
