Q Acoustics 3020i Vs Dali Spektor 2

I was looking to upgrade my desktop speakers that I've had for a while now (Voll P44) that seems to be on the way out pretty soon and I came across this deal from A2A with multiple Q Acoustics run-out models on a heavy discount.

I tried the 3020i in store and they sounded pretty great (although they were paired with a high end Cambridge streamer/amp), but then I came across the Dali Spektor 2 which also seems to be on a sizeable discount (Gonna see if I can try them out in store at some point).

They will be running off an SMSL AD18 with no subwoofer and mainly be used for music with some movies/tv show watching. Which one would be the better pick of the two. Which one would scale better if I upgraded the amp in the future/moved them to a bigger room as a 3.1/5.1 setup?

Do you have any other recommendations around the $300-400 mark that might be better than these two? Any advice would be appreciated!

P.S. Do sales like these come along relatively often or is this a very good deal that only comes around once in a while?

    Either of them will be great, my preference would be Dali.

    Mind you, there's some great deals on Marketplace, hifi seems to depreciate like a rock here.

    • Can you share why you prefer the Dali? And yeah I've seen the marketplace prices drop fast but that doesn't really bother me if it happens to me tbh.
