Esotec System 342

The Esotec System 342 three-way component system includes one pair 
each of the MD 102 soft-dome tweeter, MD 142 soft-dome midrange, 
MW 162 mid/woofer and X 362 audiophile quality, competition-grade, 

adjustable passive crossover networks into an ultra high performance 

package that delivers Dynaudio’s advanced high fidelity sound and an 
incredible  level  of  installation  flexibility.  All  mounting  hardware  and 

grilles are included.

Taking the performance of the company’s two-way systems one step further, 
Dynaudio’s  Esotec  three-way  systems  incorporate  the  innovative  MD  142 
soft-dome midrange unit that adds a further sense of refinement to the system 
while offering such at the highest possible value.

Esotec System 362

The  Esotec  System  362  component  systems  combine  one  pair  each 
of the MD 102 soft-dome tweeter, MD 142 softdome midrange, MW 172 
woofers and the X 362 crossover networks into an incredibly refined 

and  ultimately  powerful  three-way  component  system.  All  mounting 
hardware and grilles are included.

The Dynaudio Esotec mobile loudspeakers are perfectly complemented by 
the company’s various dedicated crossover offerings. The Esotec component 
system  crossovers  are  truly  competition  grade,  using  the  highest  quality 

 

components throughout. Custom produced, hand-selected, top quality poly-
propylene capacitors and custom wound, high-grade air-core inductors are 
utilized, as are impedance correction networks and tweeter protection circuits 
and independent tweeter adjustment levels for added system set-up flexibility. 

 

Mated  to  the  advanced  technology  Esotec  car  series  loudspeakers,  the 
net  result  is  a  system  that  delivers  authentic  Dynaudio  sound  quality  with 
a  neutral  tonal  balance,  incredible  imaging  and  sound-staging  capabilities, 
unsurpassed dynamics and complete transparency.
