Dynaudio Emit 30

Dynaudio Emit 30 - Perfect for larger stereo systems or the home theater

If you're looking for a little more power from your system, you've found it. The Emit 30 is a compact 2.5-way speaker designed to impress whether used as a stand-alone stereo pair or as part of a 5.1-channel (or more) home theater system.

Like its little brother, the Emit 10, it uses the 14cm MSP woofers found in the Evoke range. Unlike the Emit 10, the bass units are doubled in each speaker, so you get better bass reproduction, a clearer midrange and more punch. MSP stands for Magnesium Silicate Polymer, a material that Dynaudio has developed for their bass units and used for decades - even on their most acclaimed high-end models. The MSP provides just the right combination of lightness, stiffness and damping (one they have tuned and refined over the years) to deliver control and direct power. Right where it's needed.

“ Not only is it a good speaker, the Dynaudio Emit 30 throws down a gauntlet to other brands; if Dynaudio can do something like the Emit 30, why the **** can't you ? - Alan Sircom, Hi-Fi+

Emit 30 key features

• Designed and engineered in Denmark
  The entire Emit family has been put through its paces in our world-class Jupiter measuring facility at Dynaudio Labs. We treat it exactly the same as we do every other speaker in our range: no stone left unturned.
• Cerotar tweets
  Emit uses the highly regarded Cerotar tweeter from our Evoke series. It's a high-quality high-frequency driver inspired by our top-end Confidence and Heritage Special speakers, and includes the innovative resonance-defeating Hexis inner dome.
• Clean and simple
  Each speaker in the Emit range is designed to fit modern lifestyles and interiors. Clean lines, simple finishes and minimalist Scandinavian looks – whether you're listening in stereo or have a full multi-channel system.

Premium woofer technology

The cones are molded in one piece; we don't use a separate glued dust cap. The little balance ribs around the edge of the center are bonded directly to the voice-coil behind it, making the whole motor assembly one solid piece.

Using fewer moving parts gives our engineers fine control over how the speaker moves – which, in turn, means fine control over how it performs. You'll hear it as strong, tight bass and startlingly clear vocals, guitars and more. Even at eyebrow-raising volume.

Each woofer is powered by a dual-stacked strontium carbonite Ferrite+ ceramic magnet system. Using two magnets means we can more effectively direct where the magnetic energy goes – it's a lesson we learned developing the award-winning Special Forty anniversary series, and it's thrilling to be able to use it in our entry-level family.

The target for all that flux is the voice coil. We use aluminum windings in Emit 30. Aluminum is light (which minimizes inertia on the cone's back-and-forth movement), and because it's lighter than copper wire, it means we can pack more windings on to the two-layer glass-fibre forms. More windings equals more power, and greater control over fine movement. There's a twist, though (please pardon the pun): we've coated the aluminum wire in a very thin copper coating to further increase the control the amplifier has on the voice-coil. More strength with only a fractional weight gain: win-win.

High-performance Cerotar tweeter

While the twin 14cm mid/bass units deal with the midrange and bass, the upper frequencies are handled by the tweeter. Emit might be an 'entry-level' speaker, but we certainly haven't used any old unit off the shelf; witness the incredible Cerotar tweeter (the same as we use in Evoke). It's based on the Esotar Forty anniversary tweeter and the Esotar Pro found in our Core studio reference speakers, and must be heard to be believed.

The 28mm coated soft-dome diaphragm is backed up by the clever Hexis inner dome. The playing surface has been specifically engineered to produce ultra-clear, ultra-detailed high-frequencies without breakup (even at high volumes), while the Hexis smoothes the airflow behind it to reduce unwanted resonances. An aluminum voice-coil and airflow magnet system provide the power. Cerotar is designed for high performance without listener fatigue – perfect if you're given to long listening sessions (and you're music lovers, so we bet you are).

The bass port on the back panel has dual flares (one inside; one outside), and has been tuned to minimize unwanted 'chuffing'. It is supplied with foam inserts that can be used to optimize performance for the speaker's position relative to the wall.

Danish-designed cabinetry

Emit 30's cabinets are made from 18mm MDF to provide a solid, stable platform for the drivers to do their work. They're internally damped with polyester fibres, measured down to the gram for exactly the right amount of resonance suppression.

On the outside, you can choose from three custom laminate finishes: Black, White or Walnut. They've been chosen to complement any room, in any configuration (so if you're mixing and matching Emit speakers in a home cinema system, you can make them stand out or blend in as you want).

Emit 30 is a powerful floorstander with an incredible performance in a compact package. If you want to take your listening to the next level, they'll really make your collection sing.
