Opus One
Overview
Welcome to the Era of the Home Concert Hall
For nearly fifty years, Dynaudio has pursued one goal: reproducing sound as faithfully as possible. From driver engineering and acoustic architecture to system tuning, every critical technology is developed in-house.
Bring the Concert Hall Home
For nearly fifty years, Dynaudio has pursued one goal: reproducing sound as faithfully as possible. From driver engineering and acoustic architecture to system tuning, every critical technology is developed in-house.
Unlike conventional TV-focused home theatre systems, Opus One is built around a music-first philosophy. Its architectural 1.86-metre design integrates 24 independently engineered Hi-Fi drivers, advanced spatial processing, and Dynaudio?s acoustic expertise to create an immersive, natural soundstage that brings the concert hall into your home.
Where Great Sound Begins
At Dynaudio, exceptional sound starts with the driver. Every diaphragm, voice coil, magnetic system, and tuning process is developed and refined in-house to ensure complete control over acoustic performance.
The 24 custom-engineered Hi-Fi drivers in Opus One are precisely positioned to form a true three-dimensional soundstage, including dedicated height and surround channels. Together they reproduce not only detail and dynamics, but also the space, emotion, and realism of every performance.
Living Wooden Fins
The 72 solid-wood fins are handcrafted by Karimoku, Japan’s renowned woodworking specialist. Made from carefully selected Hokkaido timber or sustainably sourced North American hardwood, each piece is individually finished to bring warmth and timeless character to the product.
Driven by 72 independent motors, the fins move gracefully in response to system status and user interaction. More than a design statement, they create a distinctive ritual that makes music both visible and tangible.
Designed Like Architecture
Rather than resembling conventional consumer electronics, Opus One is designed as a piece of architectural furniture. A seamless aluminium body, natural wood, premium wool fabric, and refined proportions combine to create a timeless presence that complements contemporary living spaces.
Every material and every line is chosen to enhance both acoustic performance and visual harmony.
A Music-Centred Experience
Opus One comes with the Symphony Remote, featuring a precision-machined aluminium body, a high-resolution display, and intuitive physical controls centred around a tactile rotary dial.
Together with the Dynaudio Symphony app, it provides seamless access to music, system settings, and future ecosystem features — creating a simple, unified listening experience.
