Almost five years after I submitted my review of Dynau-dio’s Focus 200 XD class-D active bookshelf loudspeaker—my first product review for Stereophile—word of its imminent successor, the digital Focus 10 class-D active bookshelf loudspeaker ($5500/pair), and its two larger siblings arrived via Mike Manousselis, Dynaudio North America’s president, Americas. Then came the near-ubiquitous parts shortages and COVID-related slowdowns that have plagued high-end manufacturers worldwide.
More than 18 months later, the new Focus line debuted at Munich High End 2022. I recall my excitement as I entered Dynaudio’s huge multiroom exhibit area, and my confusion when I heard sound that, while dramatically different from the discontinued Focus 200 XD, was not what I’d hoped for or expected. Months later, when a broken-in Focus 10 pair finally arrived here, I approached them with a mixture of anticipation and dread. Would they sound similar to what I heard in Munich? Spoiler answer: No!
The Focus 10 is a completely different speaker than its predecessor, and far more advanced. Smaller, lighter (16.5lb), and— surprisingly—less expensive, the Focus 10 is a 2-way/2-driver active bookshelf pair that Dynaudio bills as a “complete wireless sound system.” The smallest model in an active wireless digital loudspeaker line that also includes two floorstanders—the 2.5-way/3-driver Focus 30 ($8250/pair) and 3-way/4-driver Focus 50 ($11,000/pair)—its multitudinous playback options range from full support for analog sources to wireless 24/48 or 24/96 streaming using WiSA1 and up to 24/192 wired playback of files and streams from various devices including smartphones.

Nina Simone: Wild Is the Wind
By all accounts, Eunice Kathleen Waymon, aka Nina Simone, who passed in 2003, was a troubled person and a brilliant artist. Why she was not more acclaimed during her lifetime is a question several recent film projects have tried to answer. Did her fierce stand on civil rights lose her fans?
