  • Tech Specs

For most professional studio engineers, the very idea of a compact, 7" 3-way studio monitor sounds nearly impossible. Leave it to Dynaudio to show us how it's done. With extraordinary clarity, tons of headroom, and unbelievable definition across the frequency spectrum, engineers here at Sweetwater have found Core 47 studio monitors show exactly what you can pack in a reasonably small studio monitor.

Highlights of the Dynaudio Core 47 include a 3-way design, with a 7" low-frequency and a 4" midrange MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) driver, and a 1" Esotar Pro tweeter. These speakers are tri-amped for a total of 1,150 watts (500W + 500W + 150W) of amplification — a recipe for extreme headroom. Between its cutting edge waveguide and front-facing bass reflux design, you'll get the kind of focused full-range sound you'd expect from a 2.1 stereo setup, and a wide sweet spot that doesn't sacrifice an iota of stereo imaging. And between extremely flexible mounting options and stellar onboard digital conversion, Dynaudio Core 47 studio monitors are among the finest we've heard.
