Dynaudio-Which one should I buy with around $5000.

C20 has plenty of low end for me and I consider myself a basehead. Thought I would opt for C30 but have been very happy with C20. However I only sit 8’ or so from them. C20 plays louder with no issue from the woofer bottoming out. If you like loud bass heavy music then C1 may not be for you. Black C20 for sale here now at a nice price.

Stretch the budget and pick up the 60's.

After break-in - spectacular.  Worth the cash.  No need for a subwoofer, just spectacular.

Have seen them out there for 7k asking.

In really depends on your room size for proper bass with or with out a sub, The Special 25,s should be on your list of auditions and usually can be had for $3000.00.

I was very impressed by the C20's.  I would suggest picking them up. 

hey @netz1, i wanted to reach out because i am a long time dynaudio fan and a current raidho dealer. i moved up from dynaudio to raidho and have never looked back - the raidho sound is different (and more to my tastes). most notably, the bass is more defined on raidhos but it doesn't have the sheer power that the dyns can muster. i do find the raidhos to be more airy, have a larger soundstage, and just have that x-factor that makes you fall in love with a speaker. prior to first demoing raidhos i never thought i'd move on from dyns (having demo'd wilsons, focals, magicos, etc)

feel free to pm me if you want to discuss further and for some price quotes on raidhos. maybe we can make a deal happen!
