Dynaudio Heritage Special or Gershman Studio 2??

Hi you all dear audiophiles🤗

I’m hoping you could help me out with my dilemma, providing needed insights about these two speakers that would help me choose which one would be a better choice for my next speaker. I’d to move to a smaller apartment, so my floorstanders are on sale.

I’m living in Scandinavia I do not have even slightest opportunity to hear Gershman speakers therefore your input is highly appreciated.

Dynaudio Heritage Special I’ve easy access and already agreed to have home demo with them. But if you’ve had an opportunity to hear the both of them please give your impressions how they compare🤗😁
But after reading a few of great reviews about Gershman speakers, now I’m torned what I should do, and I really hope you guys are able help me out with.

My amplifier is Lyngdorf Millenium IV that a Chief Engineer of Lyngdorf tuned according to my specifications (spended two weeks for tuning), all I can say it’s totally different animal compared to the original version of Lyngdorf Millennium IV, in so many areas, especially in dynamics and lower frequency area.

Also I’ll be using Jorma Design speaker cables for selected speakers. Jorma cables are the most organic sounding cables IMHO.

I love organic-live sound, tone with a slight amount of warmness never hurt, and I’m not a fan of cold and bright sounding metal tweeters either. My friend has Tekton Double Impact speakers that have a very good midrange, but these speakers does not have, foot-tapping effect, for me. And too big for my space.

Actually I’m after speakers that has real soul and musicality such as Franco Srblin Accordo speakers, but with a little mor scale and ooomph factor🤗🤓

About my music taste; I like to listen all type of genres, but usually I prefer good vocals, jazz and blues albums.

Thank you all in advance for your time and valuable input to this matter🤗👍

Hello,
I am going to recommend the KEF Reference 1. Even though they are slightly above the budget I think a dealer will deal. Plus, I have been told they have really good sales at KEF through the dealers. This is what I am waiting for. Another approach is the Dali Minuet special or SE which are $1800 usd. You might want to add a sub so I am going to recommend the KEF KF92 which is $2000 USD. This sub plays down to 11hz and has a wireless option for $199 usd. The advantage of the Dali minuets are they are meant be put close to the wall. Probably “6 away due to the unique bass port. Space is usually tight in apartments that is why I am recommending the wireless sub. This will give you lots of options in your new place and the cabinets are really good looking. So $4000 usd all in and you have an awesome sounding very flexible system. If you are in the Chicagoland area and want to experience this for yourself this Hifi store carries these options. https://holmaudio.com/
This exact setup is what I want for my home office. I may substitute the smaller KC62 subwoofer due to space constraints which will save me $500 usd which I can put toward the Rogue Sphinx integrated amp that would be the main hub unless I can swing a NAD M33. I hope this helps.
