After spending way to much time researching my next speaker purchase, and way to much time with my pair of SDA's, I really want to try out the Dynaudio brand. I want to spend at the max $1,000 for a used pair. I'm wondering if any of you had any recommendations in this price range.
I was also looking into the Totem Sttaf, but I really want to get my ears on some Dynaudio. A small footprint floorstander is really appealing to me. I should mention that I have a 1 year old which is a big reason for staying away from bookshelves on stands. I also can't give up the low end of a floorstander. My Monitor Audio RS6's were the perfect size but I couldn't tame their brightness in my system/room, so they had to go. I loved the bass output on the RS6's though. Just incredible for a small floorstander.
Just looking for some direction here. I'm hoping someone can point out a special speaker in the Dynaudio line in my price range.

Drop mantis (Dan) a PM. Not only does he sell Totems, he's also a fan of Dynaudios and I would trust his judgment and recommendation of either speaker. The Dynaudios I've heard have ALL been very very good. So I don't think you can do much wrong there!
Hopefully, Dan, will chime in later here!

I would check these out if you are seriously interested and close. They won't last long at that price and are better than the Audience 82 listed at a higher price.

Yea, that's what I keep hearing about this brand. It's almost like everybody works for them, lol. I mean literally, that exact sentence is what I keep hearing.
I'll hit Mantis up. I really enjoyed his review of the new Polk bookies. -

I don't have that kind of cash right now. I'll be making a purchase in a couple of months when the funds become available. -
Sorry to hear; that's a great price for a fantastic speaker. For your stated requirements and budget, I would watch for these in the future.All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed and third, it is accepted as self evident.

Thanks for pointing those out. They're definitely on my radar now.
