SPECIAL FORTY
Greatest Hits Reimagined
Introducing the Special Forty, where nostalgia meets innovation! This isn’t just another speaker; it’s a celebration of sound that pays homage to Dynaudio’s legendary classics while pushing the boundaries of audio technology. If you’re ready to elevate your listening experience, keep reading-this is the speaker you’ve been waiting for!
Unmatched Sound Quality
The Special Forty isn’t just about looking good; it’s about sounding incredible. With a first-order crossover design that incorporates unique Phase Alignment and Impedance Alignment technologies, this speaker ensures that every note is delivered with precision. Imagine your favorite songs coming to life with clarity and depth you’ve never experienced before. It’s like having a front-row seat to your own personal concert!
Classic Meets Cutting-Edge
Dynaudio has taken the best elements from their iconic models-like the Special One and the Contour 1.3SE-and remixed them for today’s audiophiles. The Special Forty features specially selected components that optimize impedance, allowing both the woofer and tweeter to perform at their best. The result? A sound that borders on the mesmerizing, making every listening session a delightful experience.
Innovative Driver Technology
At the heart of the Special Forty is the proprietary MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) driver. This material is not only incredibly rigid and stable, but it also ensures that your speakers will sound just as sweet years down the line. Unlike other cone materials that degrade over time, MSP maintains its integrity, so you can enjoy your music without compromise.
Symmetrical Excursion for Superior Performance
The cone design features a symmetrical excursion that enhances midrange performance, while the asymmetrical spider acts as a passive harmonic rectifier. This means you can pick out individual instruments in an orchestra with ease-yes, even that elusive Third Violin section! And with a one-piece design, the connection to the voice-coil is incredibly solid, ensuring that when you crank up the volume, the sound remains crystal clear.
Airflow is King
The new Esotar Forty tweeter takes air movement to a whole new level. With a precision-coated soft-dome design, it not only moves air efficiently but also smooths the transition to the woofer. This means you’ll experience a seamless blend of highs and lows, making your music feel more immersive than ever.
Advanced Engineering for Unmatched Detail
Dynaudio’s engineers have outdone themselves with the new pressure conduit and aero-coupled pressure-release system. These innovations reduce back-pressure and resonance, allowing for greater detail in your music. You’ll hear nuances you never knew existed, making every listening session a new adventure.
Stunning Aesthetics
The Special Forty isn’t just a treat for your ears; it’s a feast for your eyes too! Available in two stunning finishes-Black Vine and Ebony Wave-these speakers are designed to complement any decor. The man-made veneers ensure consistency and a level of finish that’s simply astonishing. They look as smooth as glass and as lustrous as a piece of luxury antique furniture.

Proudly made in Denmark, the Special Forty is a testament to Dynaudio’s commitment to quality. Designed and engineered in Dynaudio Labs, each speaker is built with care and precision, ensuring that you receive a product that not only sounds great but also stands the test of time.
