I was just browsing the Dynaudio's official website and I noticed that the entire Xeo series is appearing as discontinued: https://dynaudio.com/home-audio
Only the new Focus and Music line of speakers are still listed are "current" digital speakers.
I'm extremely surprised... For those, who don't know: Dynaudio has several lines of active wireless speakers. Focus is their most expensive line, the cheapest bookshelf speaker there costs 5000€. Music is just a "lifestyle" type wireless speakers.
The Xeo line was a more mainstream, less expensive active, wireless and hi-fi speakers.
Honestly, I was thinking that this line of products had to be very popular, because they were not very expensive and they were very convenient to use. Dynaudio seemed to invest a lot into this line of speakers, especially given the fact that not too long ago they updated the entire line with Xeo 10, Xeo 20 and Xeo 30.
Now all of them are suddenly discontinued. Crazy. Either Dynaudio will launch a new line of similar speakers (maybe now under the Focus-derivative brand?) or actually those speakers were not nearly as popular as I imagined them to be.
Honestly, if this series is discontinued for good it's like Dynaudio is becoming less and less attractive for those who look for high quality, not too expensive active speakers. That's a shame honestly, because the concept of Xeo was amazing and their ease of use was unmatched. Yes, maybe they were not the best for sound quality, but they were still very good and much more convenient to use than the likes of Genelec and so on.
I'm honestly sad about this. This line of speakers was also the one who introduced me to hi-fi audio and I spent countless of amazing hours listening to them. Such a shame.
