Dynaudio Acoustics C3 MkII

A three-way passive studio monitor for mixing and mastering

3-way hybrid

C3 MkII

The C3 MkII is a high-quality reference system for small- to medium-sized music studio applications, and for film and television post-production.

It uses the same high-quality components as our flagship M4 system – so you get still that sound; just in a smaller package. Combine it with one of our subs and eight or 10 surrounds, and it forms an excellent system for immersive monitoring, including Dolby Atmos HE 7.1.4 and 9.1.4.

The bass section consists of a 30cm MSP driver with 100mm ferrofluid-cooled voice coil. The midrange is a 17cm MSP driver with 75mm ferrofluid-cooled voice coil and neodymium magnet. Up-top is the legendary Esotar 3 soft-dome tweeter. The mid and tweeter are linked by a high-power passive crossover.

Want a horizontal version to put above or below screens or windows? We have you covered; it uses twin 24cm bass drivers instead of the single 30cm unit.

These speakers are supplied as an active two-way with two DCA stereo power amplifiers incorporating built-in crossover cards, or a DA40 with onboard DSP (this for a stereo pair).
