Dynaudio Focus 10 Compact Active Wireless Speaker at Vinyl Sound Buffa lo, NY USA The Focus 10 is a compact two-way active wireless bookshelf loudspeaker system from Dynaudio (Skanderborg, Denmark), available at Vinyl Sound in Buffalo, NY, USA. The smallest member of Dynaudio's Focus series, it houses 390W of Pascal Class D amplification per speaker, a 28mm Cerotar soft-dome tweeter with Hexis, and a 14cm MSP Esotec+ mid/bass driver in a sealed enclosure with DSP-based room compensation. Streaming is fully integrated via Apple AirPlay 2, Google Chromecast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon, Bluetooth, and WiSA wireless inter-speaker transmission at up to 24-bit/96kHz, with optional Dirac Live room correction available. The Focus 10 is the recipient of The Audiophile Apartment Product of the Year 2024, The Audiophile Apartment Overall Product of the Year 2025, and the fairaudio's Favourite Award 2025. Cerotar Tweeter with Hexis and Esotec+ Mid/Bass Driver: Per-Driver Pascal Amplification Every driver in the Focus 10 operates with its own dedicated Pascal Class D amplifier, the same approach used in Dynaudio's Core professional studio monitor range. The 28mm Cerotar soft-dome tweeter draws on technologies from the Confidence, Special Forty, and Core product families, featuring the Hexis inner dome for rear-wave resonance control, a strontium carbonate Ferrite+ ceramic magnet optimised for maximum sensitivity, and a first-order DSP crossover at 2,200 Hz. The 110W tweeter amplifier is tuned specifically to the Cerotar's electrical and mechanical characteristics, operating it with precision unavailable in a passively amplified system. Below the Cerotar, a 14cm MSP Esotec+ mid/bass driver built on experience from the Contour series development uses a new extended-throw surround and improved magnet system for deeper bass output and stronger midrange control than its chassis size would suggest. The 280W mid/bass amplifier drives this driver directly from the DSP crossover with no passive components in the signal path between amplifier and driver. The sealed enclosure works in active partnership with the DSP and amplification to extend bass response to 43 Hz at 85 dB and 22 Hz dynamically at -6 dB, well beyond what a comparable passive sealed cabinet could achieve without electronic assistance. DSP Control, Dirac Live, Smart Grille, and Driver Protection The Focus 10's DSP platform is derived from the signal processing architecture used in Dynaudio's Focus XD, LYD, and Core professional reference monitor ranges. During setup via the Dynaudio app, the user selects placement position, whether near a wall, in a corner, or in free space, and the DSP applies the corresponding room compensation profile automatically. Optional Dirac Live integration allows full measured room correction for users and installers requiring the deepest level of acoustic calibration beyond the standard placement presets. The magnetic Smart Grille includes auto-sensing technology that detects whether the grille is fitted or removed, automatically applying the correct EQ profile for that configuration, confirmed by a brief blue glow of the front indicator light. A custom sliding high-pass filter protects the mid/bass driver at high volumes by progressively reducing bass excursion as output levels rise, allowing the Focus 10 to play louder than a fixed high-pass filter would permit while maintaining driver integrity. Wireless Streaming and Full Connectivity The Focus 10 provides a comprehensive streaming and connectivity platform despite its compact 180mm x 315mm footprint. Native streaming services include Apple AirPlay 2, Google Chromecast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon, Qplay, and UPnP. Network connection is available via both Wi-Fi and Ethernet. Bluetooth 4.2 enables direct wireless pairing. Physical sources connect via two RCA analogue inputs, one Toslink optical digital input, and one RCA coaxial digital input on the primary speaker. A subwoofer RCA output, a 12V trigger output, and a wired RCA inter-speaker connection supporting 24-bit/192kHz are provided, alongside WiSA wireless inter-speaker transmission at up to 24-bit/96kHz. The system requires only two mains power cables. Key Features 390W Per-Driver Pascal Amplification: Two dedicated Class D amplifiers per speaker, 110W for the Cerotar tweeter and 280W for the Esotec+ mid/bass driver, using Pascal's amplifier technology from Dynaudio's Core professional studio monitor range, with each amplifier tuned to its assigned driver. Cerotar Tweeter with Hexis: Dynaudio's 28mm soft-dome tweeter drawing on Confidence, Special Forty, and Core technologies, with Hexis inner dome for resonance control and a Ferrite+ ceramic magnet for extended sensitivity and fatigue-free treble in a compact two-way format. 14cm MSP Esotec+ Mid/Bass Driver: A Contour-inspired mid/bass driver with extended-throw surround and improved magnet system, delivering deeper bass and cleaner midrange from a compact chassis in a sealed enclosure, actively extended by the DSP and amplification platform. Sealed Cabinet with Active Bass Extension: Closed-box design that allows the DSP to control bass extension electronically, providing tighter transient response and reaching 43 Hz at 85 dB without the port noise limitations of a ported alternative at this cabinet size. DSP Room Compensation with Placement Presets: App-selectable wall, corner, or free-space compensation profiles derived from Dynaudio's Core professional monitor DSP platform, applied automatically at first setup via the Dynaudio app. Optional Dirac Live Room Correction: Full measured room correction available via Dirac Live integration for advanced acoustic calibration beyond the built-in placement presets. WiSA Wireless Inter-Speaker Link: Cable-free 24-bit/96kHz transmission between primary and client speakers, with a wired RCA fallback supporting 24-bit/192kHz. Full Streaming Platform: AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon, Qplay, UPnP, and Bluetooth 4.2 natively supported, alongside analogue and digital physical inputs on the primary speaker. Smart Grille with Auto-Sensing EQ: Magnetic grille with built-in detection that applies the correct EQ profile depending on whether the grille is fitted or removed, with no manual adjustment required. Compact Living Room Format: At 180mm wide and 315mm tall, the Focus 10 is one of the smallest full-featured active wireless audiophile speakers available, in four furniture-grade finishes: Black High Gloss, White High Gloss, Blonde Wood, and Walnut Wood.

The Dynaudio Focus 10 is a compact two-way active wireless bookshelf loudspeaker system built in Denmark, featuring a 28mm Cerotar tweeter with Hexis, a 14cm MSP Esotec+ mid/bass driver, and 390W of dedicated Pascal Class D amplification per speaker. It streams via AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon, and WiSA wireless inter-speaker transmission, with optional Dirac Live room correction. Frequency response extends from 43 Hz to 22 kHz at 85 dB. It is the Overall Product of the Year 2025 from The Audiophile Apartment and the fairaudio's Favourite Award 2025 winner. How does the Dynaudio Focus 10 compare to the KEF LSX II or Bowers and Wilkins Formation Duo? The Dynaudio Focus 10, KEF LSX II, and Bowers and Wilkins Formation Duo are all premium compact active wireless speakers, but differ significantly in architecture and capability. The KEF LSX II uses KEF's coaxial Uni-Q driver in a two-way active design with integrated streaming and DSP, in a smaller and lighter cabinet than the Focus 10. The B and W Formation Duo is a passive speaker requiring a separate Formation Amp within the B and W wireless ecosystem. The Focus 10 differentiates itself with 390W per-driver Pascal amplification, WiSA inter-speaker wireless transmission, optional Dirac Live room correction, a full analogue and digital physical input set, and Dynaudio's Cerotar tweeter with Hexis from the Confidence range, making it the most powerful and acoustically configurable compact active option of the three. Does the Dynaudio Focus 10 need an amplifier or AV receiver? No, the Focus 10 is a fully self-contained active system. Each speaker houses two dedicated Pascal Class D amplifiers and a complete DSP crossover platform. Sources connect directly via the built-in streaming platform, analogue inputs, or digital inputs on the primary speaker. The only cables required are two mains power leads, one per speaker. What is Dirac Live and is it included with the Focus 10? Dirac Live is a professional room correction system that measures a listening room's acoustic response and generates a filter to compensate for room-induced frequency and timing errors. The Focus 10 supports Dirac Live as an optional add-on accessible through the Dynaudio app. A Dirac Live license is required separately from the speaker purchase. It is particularly useful in acoustically complex rooms where the built-in placement compensation presets are insufficient for full optimisation. Can the Dynaudio Focus 10 connect to a turntable? Yes, the Focus 10 accepts turntable signals via its RCA analogue inputs on the primary speaker, provided the turntable has a built-in phono stage or is paired with a separate phono preamplifier. The Focus 10 does not include an internal phono stage, so a moving magnet or moving coil cartridge requires amplification to line level before reaching the speaker's analogue input. Where can I buy the Dynaudio Focus 10 in Buffalo, NY or the USA? The Dynaudio Focus 10 is available 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 demonstration or to discuss stand and room setup options for your listening space. How does the Focus 10 differ from the Focus 30? The Dynaudio Focus 30 is a compact active wireless floorstander using twin 14cm MSP Esotec+ mid/bass drivers in a 2.5-way sealed enclosure, extending bass to 30 Hz at 85 dB with 670W of amplification per speaker. The Focus 10 is a two-way bookshelf design using a single 14cm MSP mid/bass driver reaching 43 Hz at 85 dB with 390W of amplification per speaker. The Focus 30 offers deeper bass extension and greater output capacity for larger rooms, while the Focus 10 is optimised for smaller spaces or desktop and shelf placements where a compact 315mm-tall footprint is the priority.
