anybody compare Dynaudio Special 40's/Heritage Specials/Confidence 20's?

I've had the 40's and Heritage, sold the Heritage and kept the 40s.

Felt the Heritage were better in many respects but did not have the speed and energy of the 40s and were not as lively

would appreciate some opinions before I shell out for the 20s

thanks

As far as the question, it seems like you prefer a ‘V’-curve sound. The 40’s have a (flavor) of a V-curve. All of the higher end, eg Contour and up, do not have the same crossover points and flavor that the 40 has. The heritage is almost monitor-like, which is very neutral. The same will go for the Confidence series. If you preferred the 40’s over the HS, then you will like the Confidence as it has a lot more oomph than the 40’s. My 2c
