Dynaudio Confidence 5


I have just found a pair of the these speakers used and I would like to hear of your expirience with them.
I currently use a pair of Quad ESL-63, would the Confidence 5 be step up the ladder?
I have read about the Dynaudios and they seem to be a correctly designed speaker?
I have one reservation about the Confidence 5, which is the rather high bass cut of (43 hz -1,5 db), do they sound thin?
Would they intergrate well with 2 Vandersteen 2wq subs?
My room is about 200 square feet with about 9 feet to the ceiling.

Any comments would be very nice.

Thanks in advance

That sounds promissing!
What amplifier are you using with them?
I have considered the vandersteen 2wq subs, which seems to be an logical choice, due to the similar crossover.

I unfortunatly have an amplifier that I specificly bought to drive the Quads. A OVC 300b push-pull (30w). So I have to change my amplifier as well.
Have you ever heard the Quad ESL-63? If so how does it compare with the Confidence 5?
I have be thinking about getting the Electrocompaniet NEMO for the C5. They should be able to drive them, but I have not heard that combination so it is just an idea.

Thank you for responding to my post. I think I might go for the Dynaudios, since I think they have a lot of the qualities I am looking for.
As fare as amplifiers go I will have to try different brands, but the reason I though of the NEMO is the fantistic bass everybody says they have.
But I will have to try some tubes as well.

Best regards
