These sit in different price classes - Dynaudio Xeo 20 costs roughly 2.3x what Sonos Five does. Expect it to lead on paper; the question is whether the gap is audible enough in your room to be worth it.

Which should you choose?
Sonos Five has the edge on paper, though the margin is not large. The rows marked "depends" may matter more to you than the score does. Think about the whole system, not just the speakers: the roughly $1,402 saved by taking the cheaper pair would buy a subwoofer or a better amplifier, and either usually does more for the sound than the difference between these two.
And remember what a spec sheet cannot show: how each looks in your room and whether the finish suits it, what dealer support and warranty are like where you live, and how they actually sound to you. If you can hear them first - ideally with your own music - that will tell you more than any number above.
