SOLD: Dynaudio Focus 110A Powered Monitors
« on: 5 Jun 2014, 05:12 pm »
For sale: Dynaudio  Focus 110A powered speakers in Cherry.  These were purchased March 2012 for $1550.00 from an authorized dealer.

Cosmetically, I’d rate them  6/10 due to some imperfections in the finish that you can see in the pictures. Under light, you can see unevenness in the finish when up close. It was hard to take pictures that could capture this without exaggerating it. I asked several people to look at them and they all said that it wasn’t very noticeable and it wouldn’t bother them. But you might feel differently. There is also some light dust on one of the tweeters. The tweeters have a stcky surface. I’ve been told that this might be removeable, but I didn’t want to experiment with it.

 In terms of performance and functionality I’d rate them 9/10. The speakers come with the original power cords and packaging.
I accept Verified Paypal payment only, please.  Shipping is included in asking price. Will ship from Madison, WI. No Paypal fee for you. Continental U.S. Only.
Asking $750.00.

Nice speakers.   :thumb:  Why the sale?

Been a fan of active design for years.  These appear to be the consumer version of the Dynaudio BM5A MkII (RCA vs XLR input with wood veneer added) to which more reviews (like this one) should be available (from the studio perspective):

Hi JLM. I think you are right. These are the studio monitors with wood finish. Very nice on the desktop for me. I've replaced them with Passives on stands in front of the desk: Harbeth Monitor 30.1 on adjustable Sound Anchor studio stands. Using a Luxman integrated. A huge expense but a very helpful improvement for me.

I've just accepted a $675.00 offer on these so a deal is pending. Would like to keep them for a second system but don't really have the space or the budget to make that practical.

Good for you (and the buyer). 

Don't understand why audiophile keep buying passive speakers when actives have so many advantages.
