Edit: Dynaudio Special 40 would be the passive.
Dynaudio Focus XD 20 or tube amp / passive
Folks,
I’d like to head from those who’ve heard / own active Dynaudio active book shelf XD 200 or XD 20 vs a tube amp and passive speakers. Thinking about upgrading my system to a simple/clean active bookshelf or a tube amp and passive Dynaudio book shelf. I’ve heard excellent feedback with the PrimaLuna amp ($2500) and a passive Dynaudio speaker ($2500) and I’m wondering if that same money $5000 would be better spent on the XD 20. I realize I don’t have control to change the sound with the active monitor but do I really need to? We are all prefer different sounds, just looking for some real world experiences.
Thank you.
