Dynaudio Pro Core 5 Two-Way Studio Monitors (Pair)
5" High-End Active 2-way Studio Nearfield monitors
SKU: DYN-CORE-5-PAIR
Core 5 is the most compact model in Dynaudio's range of high-end professional reference monitors. It’s a two-way nearfield design that’s been created to work in cramped spaces in a stereo configuration, or to provide width and height support in an immersive setup. And, crucially, to give you usable SPL for those jobs – so if you’re in an OB truck or a smaller mix-stage, you won’t strain to hear, and your eardrums won’t be blasted.

Demand for content only ever increases, while it seems physical studio space seems to go the other way. If you’re working in immersive audio, where you might need up to 16 speakers in your room, that can be an issue. Luckily for you, then, the compact Core 5 professional reference monitor is specifically designed for smaller rooms and nearfield monitoring.

That’s courtesy of the twin class-D Pascal amplifiers in each speaker: one 280W unit for the mid/woofer and 280W for the tweeter. Couple that with the advanced DSP tech on-board, and you’ll get a flat bass response down to 45Hz at -6dB, and 51Hz at ±3dB. Impressive for a speaker this size, we think you’ll agree.
