Dynaudio C1 or S25?


Anyone chose the S25 over the C1. I am in the process of upgrading and have narrowed it down to these two. I do hear something different(more musical)from the S25. I have a small listening room 10'X13'. I also want to try a lower powered tube amp ARC VS55 or CJ MV60 with either speaeker. I listen at medium to low volumes. Any insight would be great!

A poster named Simple did a review of the C1 a while back where he compared the two. He preferred the C1, but it could be just a case of "new-speaker-titus". Link is below. Technically, the C1 is a better speaker, being time-aligned and all, but it all depends on tastes and your listening room.

That's interesting information Tim, thanks for that. Have you had a chance to audition the C2 or C4? What do you think of them in comparison to the C1? How's the imaging/soundstaging, it will be compromised obviously due to the size, but does it suffer too much? And of course, how's the bass? Since the C1 goes down to 40hz quite well in-room, and since 95% of music only has bass above that, do you notice much of a difference? I'm thinking it might be easier to upgrade to the C2 or C4 instead of adding a subwoofer to my C1s, that's all.

Thanks!
