I am trying to use ADC converter in my raspberry which has speed around 100k smp/s. I am setting clock as producent of converter recomend for 20 Mhz. But I only recive around ~ 43k samples/s and I can't get more even if I change Clck value. I am using hardware SPI0. My question is what is default speed of SPI in raspeberry? How can I speed it up? I don't know python so I would like to avoid libaries in python to set SPI speed. I am using c# to programing my raspberry. Maybe there are some consol commands to set it ? Thanks for you answers.

The speed is probably limited by the number of transactions the Linux SPI driver can manage in one second.
See How fast is SPI for some benchmarks I did.
I suggest you try a library which bypasses the Linux SPI driver.
I am aware of two.
(My) pigpio.

The bcm2835 library.
