The Heritage Special is a special bookshelf loudspeaker from Dynaudio, built with an exceptionally wide bandwidth and a demanding impedance, marking a commemorative heritage-inspired design. The Heritage Special brings Dynaudio's considered engineering to a substantial compact stand-mount format.

Key specs that matter

Rated response is 42Hz to 33,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB, a wide bandwidth. Sensitivity is a comparatively modest 85dB into a demanding 4 ohm load, with recommended amplifier power specified at 200W. At 20.8 x 38.5 x 32.0cm and 11kg, the Heritage Special's considerable weight for a bookshelf design reflects serious internal driver and cabinet engineering consistent with this commemorative edition's ambitious engineering.

Sound and use context

Expect the refined, musically engaging character Dynaudio's broader Danish high-end catalogue is known for, with the exceptionally wide 42Hz-33kHz bandwidth reflecting careful driver integration within this special commemorative design.

Pairing

The demanding 4 ohm impedance and specified 200W power call for an amplifier with genuine current delivery.

Alternatives

Dynaudio's own Special Forty offers a related commemorative model within the same broader heritage-inspired catalogue.
