A pair of big floor-standing speakers makes a statement. With Emit 50, you can make that statement without giving your bank a heart attack. Its audiophile-grade technology and tuning deliver room-filling hi-fi performance at a price level open even to those taking their first steps into high-end sound.

Emit 50 delivers a level of power and finesse that, honestly, you could pay double the price for elsewhere. But why would you? Its twin 18cm woofers, 15cm midrange driver, and 28mm soft-dome Cerotar tweeter are each dedicated to producing the clearest possible performance at true cinema-level volume.

High-performance woofers

Lets give you the bottom line: Emit 50s woofers dig deep. The two 18cm units (the same type used in Emit 20) use trickle-down technology from the high-end Evoke, Contour i, and Confidence families to deliver astonishing low-frequency performance, well above the previous Emit range. It means the speaker can dig truly deep into the bass (-3dB at 33Hz, which equals Contour 60i and Confidence 60, if youre into numbers), but allows us to keep the cabinet at a size that still fits your living room.

The one-piece cones are made from an in-house-formulated MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) material, complete with an integrated dust-cap. Making drivers from one piece of material, rather than sticking on a separate piece, gives the playing surface a much better connection to the voice-coil behind it. And that means better control over their movement: less unwanted distortion and resonance, and more fine detail even in the lowest notes.

Unlike the other speakers in the series, Emit 50s woofers use copper voice coils. Thats because they dont need to be quite as sprightly as they would when also handling midrange duties (as on Emit 20). So, heavier copper was used for more outright punch. Thats intensified by the dual-stacked magnet system, which is optimized to direct its energy directly into the voice coil.

Dedicated midrange driver

The midrange driver is a different beast. Exclusive to Emit 50, its derived from the version used in the Evoke range which, in turn, came directly from the high-end Contour series. It has a powerful ferrite ceramic magnet, a short version of the 38mm-diameter aluminum voice-coil (specifically optimized for midrange performance), and a lightweight surround. Its designed for speed and precision: exactly what you need for reproducing nuanced vocals, orchestral strings and wind instruments, and more.

Sweet high frequencies

Emit 50s Cerotar tweeter is the same as youll find in the Evoke family. Its a ground-up design that uses key technologies developed for the award-winning Special Forty anniversary speakers, plus Confidence and even the Core range of professional studio reference monitors. Dynaudio's engineers are really proud of it, and rightly so.

Cerotars 28mm coated fabric soft-dome diaphragm sits on top of another Dynaudio innovation: the Hexis. This ingenious dimpled inner dome is placed close enough behind the fabric to stop unwanted resonance reflecting back to the rear of the playing surface. It keeps the frequency response smooth for cleaner, sweeter treble and more detail in your music.

The tweeter is powered by a powerful Ferrite strontium carbonate ceramic magnet to give it more sensitivity. That translates to your ears as a more authentic performance you hear what youre meant to hear; nothing more, nothing less. And because its so natural, it also reduces fatigue so you can listen for longer.

Clever crossover design

Emit 50s crossover is a hybrid design. Theres a traditional Dynaudio first-order circuit for the tweeter, a second-order design for the midrange driver, and a fourth-order topology for the woofers.

Authentic Danish design

The cabinets have been designed and tuned in-house in Denmark. Theyre constructed from 18mm MDF and damped with specially selected polyester material (yes, thats tuned too) to make sure the drivers have the most stable platform possible.

You can choose from three custom laminate finishes (Black, White, and Walnut), and black magnetic grilles come as standard. So if you want your speakers to stand out or blend in (or both), you can mix and match. Its something you might want to think about if youre creating a multi-channel system from scratch using Emit 50 alongside other speakers in the range.

Whether youre starting a brand-new high-end system from scratch, or upgrading from another system, Emit 50s combination of power and finesse will bring a new level of performance to your music and films.
