Grissle,
RE Beauty. No discount for ugly is there?
I bought the Dynaudio 20's for my standpoints.
Reasons:
1. Most stable design I have seen. Tip overs can really ruin your day
so I prioritized this.
2. Cable Management system reduces odds of day tripping.
3. Designed to hold 15-20 lbs of sand in each stand. Adds to stability and vibration control.
4. Each stand comes with 4 adjustable spikes.
MSRP is $500. My friend Dan Harmon at Dedicated Audio made a special
purchase and sold me mine for $350. Dan gets a "highly recommended"
from me.
They may not win any "design" awards but form follows function in my book.
