If it ain't broke...just tweak it

That's the one speaker that the still have in production - so they did something that the customer likes....just like the rest of the speakers in this list - hey the Klipsch heritage series don't measure well either - but the proof is in the pudding

Dynaudios Contour line has been around for a long time, its gone thru a lot of revisions. plus all their speakers except the new DM and Excite lines have the 3" aluminum voice coil, the DM/Excites still have aluminum VC's, but they are 1.6" vc's so they are easier to drive. All their speakers still use their soft dome tweeters they have long been known for and have never switched to new "exotic" metals, plus they still use the same MSP material for the mid-woofers.
