upgrade Dynaudio Special 40 to Kef Reference 1


Hi,

I am planning on an upgrade. I am currently using Dynaudio Special 40 speakers with a Hegel Rost amp and JL audio subwoofer. Will i notice big difference if I upgrade to the Kef Reference 1 speakers? Another option I am considering is to upgrade the Hegel Rost amp to a Yamaha AS3000 amp. Which upgrade is more beneficial at this time since I can only do one upgrade. Thanks.

Altman, glad you keep the sp40. I use them with my Pass 60, then upgraded to the Pass 250 and the dyns scaled up right with it. The Pass has magical mids and so does the sp 40. I have a piair of LS 50 metas and Goldenear brx. The Though they can sound great depending what amp I use, none of them work as well with the pass as the sp40. I even tried the Buchardt 400 2’s and the sp 40 outshines them to my ears. I do like the Kef sound and my Hegal and LS50 make sound wonderful sound.
