Offered is „Special Forty in Black Vine“ by Dynaudio as exhibit from the category „Compact Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 774845632 ends on 22.10.2026 at 06:03 o'clock.
At €2,290, this sits right at the 75th percentile of the recent comparable EUR asks and a touch above the median €2,223, so it reads as fair-to-firm rather than a bargain. It is not cheap, but it is still within the normal upper end of the current used market for this model, so I would not call it overpriced on the numbers alone.
That makes it a sensible buy if the pair is genuinely good-condition and complete: this is a well-liked compact monitor with the usual Dynaudio strengths of clean midrange, solid bass for size, and an easy, refined presentation that works across a lot of systems. The upside here is buying something desirable in clean shape without chasing a rarer finish or a worn example; just confirm cosmetic condition, grilles, and any original packaging or stands if included.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Dynaudio is a Danish loudspeaker manufacturer founded in 1977 in Skanderborg by acoustic engineers Wilfried Ehrenholz and Mark Thorup, alongside co-founder Ivan Scarning Geard. The company emerged from a conviction that off-the-shelf speakers of the era failed to reproduce music authentically. From its inception, Dynaudio has maintained vertical integration, designing and manufacturing its own drivers rather than sourcing components externally—a practice that remains central to the brand's identity and quality control.
The company specializes exclusively in loudspeakers and speaker systems across two primary markets: high-fidelity consumer audio and professional studio monitoring. Dynaudio's consumer division produces reference-grade speakers for discerning listeners, while its professional subsidiary, Dynaudio Acoustics, manufactures studio monitors installed in more than ten thousand recording studios worldwide. The brand has earned particular distinction as a reference monitor choice for BBC Radio & Music, underscoring its credibility in professional environments.
Dynaudio occupies the high-end segment of the audio market, positioning itself among premium manufacturers rather than mass-market producers. The brand's reputation rests on uncompromising engineering philosophy—prioritizing authentic driver design over superficial aesthetics—and consistent innovation in loudspeaker technology. Since its acquisition by Chinese electronics company Goertek in 2014, Dynaudio has maintained its Danish heritage and manufacturing practices while expanding its global reach. For knowledgeable buyers, Dynaudio represents a convergence of Scandinavian design sensibility, technical rigor, and professional-grade performance in the consumer hi-fi space.
