Dynaudio Core 5 Studio Monitor

Dynaudio Core 5 is a compact two-way nearfield monitor delivering high-end accuracy and power for smaller rooms and immersive setups, with advanced DSP room correction, dual 280W Class-D amplifiers, and Dynaudio’s signature Cerotar Pro tweeter for fatigue-free precision listening.

Dynaudio Core 5 Studio Monitor

The Dynaudio Core 5 is a compact professional reference monitor designed for smaller studios and immersive environments where space is limited but accuracy is essential. Created to handle up to 16 speakers in an immersive setup, the Core 5 delivers outstanding sound pressure levels and detailed performance without overpowering the room. With twin Class-D Pascal amplifiers providing 280W each to the woofer and tweeter, it achieves a flat bass response down to 45Hz at -6dB, while maintaining clarity and balance across the frequency range.

At its heart lies a 28mm Cerotar Pro soft-dome tweeter with Hexis resonance control and a 5-inch MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) woofer, providing the natural, transparent sound Dynaudio monitors are renowned for. The speaker’s DSP engine enables room and boundary compensation via selectable modes including Desk, Anechoic, and Soffit, along with fine-tuning options like Bright, Neutral, and Dark sound balance modes that adjust spectral tilt without compromising phase alignment.

Precision gain staging options allow perfect matching with both analogue and digital workflows. The Core 5 supports XLR analogue and AES3 digital connections, with adjustable input sensitivity between 0dBu and +24dBu. Users can configure maximum SPL levels and select clock sources via word clock or AES3 digital input, ensuring bit-perfect monitoring accuracy. Compact, powerful, and refined, the Dynaudio Core 5 brings high-end immersive monitoring performance to small-scale professional spaces.
