Audiophile speakers that get loud

I have Dynaudio C1s and while I like their sound, I can’t turn them up as loud in my small room as I would like to sometimes without the woofers maxing excursion. I have a JL audio sub but the C1s are not high passed. Any attempts I’ve tried to do this have lost the sound I like at lower levels. Any ideas on what I should try?

Stuff the ports. :)

The excursion happens because below the port, the woofers have no resistance at all.

Stuff them. This will raise the natural -3dB point up a few Hz, but greatly increase the dynamic range they can play out before they hit max.

Compensate with new sub settings.
