KEF blades 2 or Dynaudio C4?

I am happy to see so many responses in a short period.
I am just wondering if my room 18x12 will do for the blades.  Just concerned that is not wide enough.
When I had the reference 3 was OK.
Wondering if the ref 5.will fit the bill or I should get the blades 2.
Anyone having boomy experience with the blades 2?
Thanks 

Whatever you do, read my KEF direct experience first. 

Maritime that is 1 reason you purchase from a dealer. 

If you had purchased from us we would have eaten that shipping cost for both directions unless when Kef received the speakers they found nothing wrong.

The only issue ever had with a pair of kefs was a blown set of tweeters one time and a set of uni-q that were overdriven with a 1,000 watts of power. 

That is it. Kef builds fantastic speakers what is causing your distortion is a mystery at this point.

Uh, doc, can you say, “tautology?”

yes, I erred buying from KEF direct. Are you satisfied, now?

believe me, that mistake will never be repeated by me. 

audiotroy,

I agree you are in a tough position when giving praise to speakers like the Kef Blades which you sell.   As you say, many high end dealers choose speaker lines that they are personally impressed by, and can feel good about selling.  So naturally you like what you sell.  Doesn't invalidate the kudos you give for a speaker.



It sort of reminds me of the common refrain that someone who owns a product is "biased" in his/her opinion because of it.  Well, no, not necessarily - the whole reason someone buys, say, a speaker is that they likely compared it to other speakers and came to an opinion on the sound - liked enough to buy.   



I own a variety of speakers and can talk about what I like about them, but it's the same reasons as those that brought me to buying them in the first place.   Yes we have biases about what sound we personally like; but those are operative before you even bought the speaker.
