Dynaudio Emit 30 Floorstanding Speaker (Pair) at Vinyl Sound Buffalo, NY USA

The Emit 30 is a compact 2.5-way floorstanding loudspeaker from Dynaudio (Skanderborg, Denmark), available at Vinyl Sound in Buffalo, NY, USA. Part of Dynaudio's Emit series, it features a 28mm Cerotar soft-dome tweeter with Hexis inner dome and twin 14cm MSP mid/bass drivers with copper-coated aluminium voice coils and dual-stacked Ferrite+ ceramic magnets. Sensitivity is 87 dB, impedance is 4 ohms, IEC power handling is 180W, and frequency response extends from 44 Hz to 25 kHz. The 18mm MDF cabinet uses dual rear-ported double-flared bass reflex ports and is tuned at Dynaudio's Jupiter acoustic measurement facility in Denmark. The Emit 30 is sold as a pair and suited to stereo two-channel systems or compact multi-channel home cinema setups in medium to large rooms.

Cerotar Tweeter with Hexis: Evoke-Level High-Frequency Performance

The Emit 30 uses the identical Cerotar tweeter fitted in Dynaudio's higher-tier Evoke series. The 28mm coated soft-dome diaphragm draws on design lessons from the Esotar Forty anniversary tweeter and the Esotar Pro used in Dynaudio's Core professional studio reference monitors. The Hexis inner dome, a dimpled secondary dome positioned directly behind the playing surface, suppresses unwanted resonances from forming in the dome cavity and reflecting back through the diaphragm, smoothing the frequency response and reducing coloration at the top end. An aluminium voice coil and optimised airflow magnet system provide drive efficiency, and the first-order crossover topology for the tweeter, at 3,550 Hz, was selected specifically to allow the Cerotar to operate as close as possible to its natural roll-off characteristics. This minimises phase distortion through the crossover region and contributes to the Emit 30's capacity for long listening sessions without fatigue. The dual-flared rear bass port, with one internal flare and one external flare, has been tuned to suppress the aerodynamic noise that conventionally ported cabinets can produce at higher excursion levels, and comes with foam inserts for near-wall placement optimisation.

Twin 14cm MSP Mid/Bass Drivers: Dual-Stacked Magnets and Copper-Coated Aluminium Voice Coils

Both 14cm MSP mid/bass drivers in the Emit 30 use one-piece Magnesium Silicate Polymer cones without a separately bonded dust cap. The cone, balance ribs, and voice-coil former are bonded as a single mechanical assembly, ensuring that energy from the voice coil is transferred directly and consistently to the full cone surface with minimal loss or flexion. Each driver is powered by a dual-stacked strontium carbonate Ferrite+ ceramic magnet system, a technology developed for Dynaudio's Special Forty anniversary series that concentrates magnetic flux more precisely on the voice coil than a single magnet arrangement. The voice coils use aluminium wire wound on a two-layer glass-fibre former, with a thin copper coating applied over each aluminium winding. This coating increases the amplifier's electrical grip on the voice coil, providing more precise control over cone movement with only a marginal increase in mass. The 2.5-way crossover splits the two drivers at 1,000 Hz: the upper driver operates from bass through midrange up to the 3,550 Hz tweeter handover, while the lower driver handles frequencies below 1,000 Hz only, adding low-frequency reinforcement and extending bass output for the compact cabinet size. Both crossover sections use second-order filter networks.

Key Features

  • Cerotar Tweeter with Hexis: The same 28mm soft-dome tweeter used in Dynaudio's Evoke series, featuring the Hexis inner dome for resonance suppression, a first-order crossover for minimal phase distortion, and an aluminium voice coil with optimised airflow magnet for fatigue-free high-frequency performance.
  • Twin 14cm MSP Mid/Bass Drivers: Two one-piece MSP cone drivers with copper-coated aluminium voice coils on two-layer glass-fibre formers, providing precise cone control and a higher winding count for greater motor force and detail resolution.
  • Dual-Stacked Ferrite+ Ceramic Magnets: Each mid/bass driver uses two strontium carbonate Ferrite+ ceramic magnets stacked to concentrate magnetic energy directly into the voice coil, a system derived from Dynaudio's Special Forty anniversary speaker development.
  • 2.5-Way Crossover at 1,000 Hz / 3,550 Hz: A second-order woofer network and first-order tweeter network, crossing the two MSP drivers at different frequencies to achieve bass reinforcement below 1,000 Hz while keeping a single driver responsible for the midrange band.
  • Dual Double-Flared Rear Bass Ports: Two rear-firing ports with internal and external flares, tuned to minimise port noise at high excursion, and supplied with foam inserts for near-wall placement optimisation.
  • 18mm MDF Cabinet with Tuned Polyester Damping: Enclosure walls built from 18mm MDF, internally lined with polyester fibre measured to the gram for precisely calibrated resonance suppression, voiced at Dynaudio's Jupiter acoustic measurement facility.
  • Compact Floorstanding Format: At 900mm tall and 170mm wide without feet, the Emit 30 fits comfortably in medium to large living rooms without the footprint of a full-scale tower design.
  • Sold as a Pair: The Emit 30 is listed and sold as a stereo pair, compatible with the Emit 25C centre channel and Emit 10 or Emit 20 bookshelf speakers for a complete Emit multi-channel home cinema system.
  • Three Laminate Finishes: Black, White, and Walnut, with black magnetic grilles included as standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Dynaudio Emit 30?

The Dynaudio Emit 30 is a compact 2.5-way floorstanding loudspeaker sold as a pair, designed and voiced at Dynaudio's Jupiter facility in Denmark. It features a 28mm Cerotar tweeter with Hexis, twin 14cm MSP mid/bass drivers with copper-coated aluminium voice coils and dual-stacked Ferrite+ ceramic magnets, and two rear double-flared bass reflex ports. Sensitivity is 87 dB, impedance is 4 ohms, IEC power handling is 180W, and frequency response extends from 44 Hz to 25 kHz. It is suited to stereo listening or compact multi-channel home cinema configurations in medium to large rooms.

How does the Dynaudio Emit 30 compare to the Klipsch RP-6000F II or Q Acoustics 5040?

The Dynaudio Emit 30, Klipsch RP-6000F II, and Q Acoustics 5040 are all compact 2.5-way floorstanders targeting entry-level audiophile and home cinema buyers. The Klipsch RP-6000F II uses a Tractrix horn-loaded compression tweeter and dual 6.5-inch Cerametallic woofers, with significantly higher sensitivity around 97 dB for high-efficiency pairings and a forward, energetic character. The Q Acoustics 5040 uses a cloth dome tweeter and two 5-inch midrange-bass drivers in a relatively shallow cabinet tuned for near-wall placement. The Emit 30 differentiates itself with the full Cerotar tweeter with Hexis from the Evoke series, dual-stacked Ferrite+ magnet systems derived from the Special Forty anniversary speaker, and Dynaudio's in-house MSP cone material tuned at the Jupiter measurement facility, providing a more neutral and refined presentation focused on tonal accuracy and long-term listening quality.

What does the copper coating on the Emit 30's aluminium voice coils do?

The copper coating is applied over the aluminium wire windings on the Emit 30's mid/bass voice coils to increase the amplifier's electrical control over the driver. Aluminium is used as the primary winding material because its low mass allows more turns to be wound onto the glass-fibre former for a given total weight, increasing motor force and control. The thin copper outer layer then improves the electrical conductivity of the winding surface without meaningfully increasing inertia, resulting in tighter grip over the cone's back-and-forth movement and finer resolution of low-level dynamic detail.

What amplifier does the Dynaudio Emit 30 work best with?

The Emit 30 is rated at 4 ohms with 87 dB sensitivity and 180W IEC power handling, making it suited to a solid-state integrated amplifier that can deliver stable current into a 4-ohm load. A minimum of 50W into 4 ohms is adequate for small to medium rooms, with 80W or more recommended for larger spaces or higher listening levels. Integrated amplifiers from NAD, Cambridge Audio, Yamaha, or Rotel at appropriate power levels pair well. Budget AV receivers rated for 6-ohm or 8-ohm loads may feel underpowered with the Emit 30 in larger listening environments.

Can the Dynaudio Emit 30 be placed close to a wall?

Yes, with the included foam port inserts. The Emit 30's dual rear-ported enclosure is supplied with foam plugs that can be partially or fully inserted to reduce bass loading when the speakers are positioned near a rear wall. Without the plugs, Dynaudio recommends at least 20 to 50 cm of clearance from the rear wall to prevent excessive bass build-up from the dual-flared ports. The foam inserts allow the speaker's bass response to be adjusted mechanically without requiring equalizer settings or amplifier adjustments.

Where can I buy the Dynaudio Emit 30 in Buffalo, NY or the USA?

The Dynaudio Emit 30 is available as a pair at Vinyl Sound in Buffalo, NY, USA. Vinyl Sound is an authorized Dynaudio dealer serving customers in Buffalo, Western New York, and across the United States. Contact Vinyl Sound Buffalo to arrange a listening demonstration or to discuss matching components for a stereo or home cinema configuration.

How does the Emit 30 differ from the Emit 50?

The Dynaudio Emit 50 is the three-way flagship of the Emit series, adding a dedicated 15cm MSP midrange driver with a ferrite ceramic magnet and a fourth-order woofer crossover, alongside twin 18cm copper voice-coil woofers in a larger cabinet reaching 33 Hz. The Emit 30 uses a 2.5-way configuration with twin 14cm MSP drivers handling both midrange and bass in a more compact 900mm-tall cabinet, reaching 44 Hz at -3 dB. The Emit 50 is better suited to larger rooms and cinema-level output requirements, while the Emit 30 delivers compact floorstander performance for buyers who need a slimmer 170mm-wide cabinet with a lower amplifier power requirement of 180W versus the Emit 50's 240W.
