KEF R3s or Dynaudio special 40?

mofojo, thanks for the opinion, the Yamaha MXD 1 is a 500 watt amp which is supposed to be able to run anything so it can definitely run the Dynaudios. Thanks for the reply!

goldprintaudio, haven't heard any of these but I have listened to the Dynaudio Evidence Platinums which are my reference speakers hooked up to an accuphase amp. These speakers are more for my bedroom for casual listening. I've also heard some Kef home theatre speakers, which I enjoy but I think those are on the older side and do not have Kef's UNI Q drivers. 

I'm not 100 percent sure what you mean Kenjit!  Both of these speakers do fine bass and the amp I have is more than enough to reach lo, low bass on these, you do sound like a person that would believe that Devialet Phantoms are the best speakers in the world. Also, I haven't bought any of them yet and cannot go trial them as I am in a country where I have to ship these speakers from abroad and there is a bit of a pandemic going around! In all fairness, you sir, are not ready to be an audiophile! If you really don't care then you should definitely not be an Audiogon member!
