We have just acquired a stunning set of these anniversary model special 40 bookshelf speakers and corresponding Dynaudio stands in as new condition. These unit even have all original boxes and have been very well looked after.
Every time we get a set of these they sell very quickly and a pair such as this with the stands wont last long, great opportunity to save big on a new set. New RRP on the speakers and stands is $6300.
These will come with a 12 month limited warranty.

What should you be asking yourself: is this A$3,500 ask close enough to the pack to justify moving fast? Against your comparable AUD data, it sits above the 75th percentile of A$3,195, so this is ambitious rather than fair; it’s not outrageous, but it is priced at the top end of recent asking levels.
That said, this is a well-regarded speaker with real enthusiast appeal: the Special 40 is known for refined detail, clean midrange, and a balanced, easy-to-listen-to presentation that suits serious two-channel setups. If the pair is clean, complete, and from a careful owner, the upside is in getting a premium monitor-style speaker without buying new. At this price, I’d want strong condition, original accessories, and no hidden cabinet or driver issues.
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.
