KEF blades 2 or Dynaudio C4?

I think a thorough audition is a must, escpecially at this price point.  I have been to several shows and not impressed with the Blades considering their cost.  However, my good audio friend thinks they are outstanding.  

@mgrif104 my teenager daughter can care less about audio equipment.  Well, not sure about that.  If Apple ever got in to the audio equipment I am sure she might be on board.

it bugs me to hear her listen from her iPhone or MacBook when she could listen from so much better.  She wants a minimalist look with no wires and seamless interface using Spotify or something similar that looks good.   I might try ls50 wireless or some other modern all in one speaker. To see if that takes  

Based on my daughter and her friends, who appear to share her attitude, I believe we will see a shift in hi-end audio that comes from a small footprint.  She thinks I am crazy to have a class a amp, with pre along the cabling.

i will just say when i heard both the Dynaudio and KEF they were driven by multi tens of thousands of front end gear.  I can only presume the presenters took due diligence to ensure equipment synergy.  Again, i didn't like the blades at that price point.  Others on the otherhand love.

@audiotroy i am contemplating dynaudio countour 20s.  what other brands do you recommend? Do these other brands require a sub.  i prefer not to use sub based on integration difficulty.

if i were to place 1 adjective based on @audiotroy description and posts on his store's greatness "bigly" comes to mine 

I agree with fast.  

Even if I don't agree with someone's speaker choice I do my best to try and understand their choice.    In fact, I can usually find an aspect I enjoy and if their is none, we can enjoy what is most important the music.

I would rather listen to good music on a bad system then bad music on a good system.

I’m confused.  Are storeowners comparing store size and audio conquests? Seems odd and who really cares.  Didn’t know the audio industry had so many blowhards.

@mountainsong has this thread helped?  If you like the KEF sound I would stick with them.  I have heard both at audio shows and the c4 recently at someone’s home (not the newest version). I thought they were good, but not impressed given the $$. However,  I give the edge to the KEFs.

@audiotroy what you say seems accurate, an expert on the products you sell.  However, I do not think this is the issue.  

I surmise a Honda salesman is an expert in Honda’s too.  However, you think as a car buyer I walk-in asking said salesman, “Honda or Toyota” Toyota will get a fair shake?  

If i may ask, What are your top 3 speakers you do not sell?
