Owners of DNM or Sonodyne Tower Speakers

Hi!! All

If any one is owner of DNM or Sonodyne tower speakers. Can you pl post a review.

I had a demo of DNM and will be taking Demo of Sonodyne shortly. Your i/p 's will be valuable to me.

FYI :- I will be pairing this with Denon 1911.

Thx!! In advance

I haven't heard DNM, but am not a fan of Sonodyne's floorstanders at all. I heard them when a friend was out to buy a system and was appalled by the complete lack of lower end. When I asked the Sonodyne guys why the speakers were not producing the bass that the recording had, they told me that if I wanted more bass, I'd need to use a subwoofer with the floorstanders!

Yesterday i got a demo for Jamo s 606 & personally found it to be too bassy.

Base was completely dominating the sound.

I will have to audtioned Sonodyne

Try Mission m34 speakers. Lovely, lovely sound. Much, much better than Sonodyne. They're available at Savoy, in Mumbai for around 22-23K. http://www.savoyindia.com/

I had a demo of Mission M34. But some how found it underpowered.
Base was completely lacking

If you are looking for better bass with midrange try audition wharfedale 9.6 ..

I own the Sonodyne Sonus 2605 towers and I am reasonably pleased with them. I mostly use them for movies than in a 2 channel set-up. On the few occasions I listen to movies, I find them quite alright. In fact I never found a need to use a sub on such occasions. Perhaps because I am not a great fan of too much Bass. When you do the audition yourself, you will know whether it's good enough for you or not.

Well, what you describe is quite unlike the Marantz/Pulz/Mission combo that I auditioned.

Agreed. Speakers are a very personal affair - you either like 'em or you don't. Also, the amp/speaker combo makes a hell of a lot of difference.
