VG gav Dynaudio Focus 360 Terningkast 6 og skrev i sin anmeldelse: Dynaudio Focus 360 - Høyttalere i verdensklasse. Konklusjon: Dynaudio Focus 360 byr på egenskaper som selv dyrere høyttalere kan se langt etter. De er nøyaktige og avslørende nok til å kunne brukes som studiohøyttalere, men samtidig tøffe og engasjerende nok til at du kan lage ditt eget hjemmediskotek. Det forutsetter imidlertid at du gir dem rikelig med forsterkerkraft, for de er ganske sultne på watt. Det finnes enda bedre høyttalere der ute, men en høyttaler som overgår Focus-modellene på flere punkter, kan fort bli veldig dyr. Focus 360 gjør så mye riktig at vi gir dem vår klare anbefaling.

Summing up
Manufacturers of high-value loudspeakers whose products challenge far more expensive gear aren?t all that common. Two speakers that come to mind are the PSB Synchrony One ($5000/per pair) and the Paradigm Reference Signature S8 v.3 ($6500/pair). Both have set standards for what can be achieved at their respective real-world prices, delivering full-range sound that you just wouldn?t expect for that money. Up to now, Dynaudio had no model that could directly compete with them in terms of performance for price.
That has changed. The Dynaudio Focus 360 offers a lot of performance for $7000/pair. In fact, in terms of value, it?s the most impressive speaker I?ve yet heard from the specialty Danish manufacturer -- and one of the most impressive speakers I?ve reviewed in some time.

Utdrag fra omtale i Audiocircle:
The Focus 360 speakers are easily the best sounding speakers I?ve ever owned, and among the best I have ever come across, period. They are remarkably neutral from the lowest octave right up through the highest treble. There is no noticeable accentuation or attenuation of any frequency band with these speakers. What is immediately noticed is the midrange is very open, detailed, and natural sounding. These speakers will make you want to go through your music collection and re-listen to all your favorite recordings. Rest assured you will often hear new nuances in recording you thought you had down cold.
The amazing thing is that all types of music sound outstanding with these speakers. Whether your preference is rock, pop, metal, jazz, chamber, symphonic, you name it, it one?s chosen music will sound great with these speakers. Piano and percussion instruments sound very life-like with these speakers. They really excel with non-amplified instruments, such as violins. The timbres of these are among the best I?ve heard to date. Vocals sound natural and life-like, with no over emphasis on any aspect of reproduction. The treble is simply outstanding. High frequencies are light, airy, natural, and best of all, none fatiguing. The fact that Dynaudio put their best tweeter in this is readily apparent.
The sound stage is wide and deep. Due to the high degree of resolution, they sound like you are in the center of hall or a little forward of center. They provide the small scale nuances one experiences at a symphony that often don?t come across in the recording.
The bass is tight, tuneful, and accurate. I highly doubt anyone would need a subwoofer for just about any type of music with these. The only time a sub may help is if you are playing some very heavy organ music, or if you use them in a surround setup for movies. Even then, these speakers can handle everything quite nicely. In summary, the Dynaudio Focus 360 is a true reference speaker. Several reviewers favorably compared these against models that cost twice as much or more.
Some Additional Observations:
Late in the evaluation, decided to try a pair of tube amps with the Dyna?s to see how they would sound. The tube preamp is a Thomas Meyer 6AH4 Clone, and the power amps are 110 watt mono-blocks, which sport a quad of 1625 output tubes.
The results were a bit of a mixed bag. With some legacy recordings, such as Howling Wolf?s Chess Box Set, the presentation was very enjoyable. Vocals had that old time tube sound many people find alluring. The fine detail was lost a bit, and the bass sounded slightly bloated by comparison. When listening to Rachmaninoff?s Piano Concerto #3, some of the dynamic range was attenuated, and while the piano sounded very good, it seemed a bit too polite compared to the higher powered solid state setup. So, while some recordings, such as small jazz ensembles would sound excellent with the Dynas driven by tubes, other recordings, such as heavy symphonic music, would exhibit some level of bass bloat, compression, and slight loss of inner detail with using tubes. One thing I have noticed over the years is that tube amps do not seem to perform as well with speakers with complex crossovers (three way or more) as a high powered solid state amps. Perhaps this is what was noticed here in this example. A case in point: The same tube amps drive a pair of ATC SCM-19 two way monitors (at 85db) very well. The Focus 360?s need a high powered solid state amp input to get the best performance from the bass registers to control the woofers.
Final Notes:
These speakers are rated at 88 db, and while they will play plenty loud with 110 to 150 watts, the extra power really helps them sound their best. Early on, I evaluated the speakers with one of Primare A34.2 amps in stereo. This provides 300 watts @ 4 ohms, and while the speakers sounded fine, they sound somewhat better with the 1100 watts @ 4 ohms available. The difference is quite noticeable, as there is no sense of congestion with the music when the extra power is available. The Focus 360?s certainly can handle in excess of 300 watts for musical peaks/transients. There is a lot documentation and research that is out there regarding clipping of musical signals. It?s the type of thing one may not notice until you hear a system where there is enough power that clipping does not occur. However, once you are exposed to this, it?s hard to tolerate in one?s own system. I think one of the reason some folks love tubes is the soft clipping characteristics, which masks the effect to some extent.
To summarize, the Dynaudio Focus 360?s are an outstanding set of speakers, ones that I plan to keep for a long time. One could spend a LOT more on speakers, and not get as much enjoyment or satisfaction as these can provide. The Dynaudio sound is one most audiophiles (I think) can easily live with.
