Dynaudio Confidence or Sonus Faber monitors

What are your views of Dynaudio Confidence C-1 versus Sonus Faber Memento or the Cremona Auditor M as monitor speakers. I am looking for a small room speaker 11x18x8. Music is pop, rock, jazz. Other component can be modified in the future currently using wadia 27 dac with wadia I-transport,CI audio power supply, Monarchy DIP , Cambridge 840W and 840E, cardas golden ref IC and speaker cables and Sonus faber grand piano home speakers. I think the dynaudio C-2 will be too large for the room plavement.

In a room very close in dimensions to the OP''s, I use a pair of SF GM's with excellent results. I previously had the SF Auditor M's in that room, but upgraded to the GM's because I found I prefer the GM's musical presentation. But the Auditor M's were still excellent in that room. Bottom line, given the OP's room dimensions, my experience indicates that either of the SF choices being considered will work very well.

@Rpssb - The "strings" on the GM stands are removable. If you take them off you see a modestly sculpted grey-black metal pedestal that I believe looks fine. My wife and I experimented with the stands and speakers with and without the strings and finally opted for the stands with the strings and the speakers without the strings.

Like Miner42, I preferred the Auditor M's when they were supplemented with a REL B-2. The room they were in is 14' x 25' x 8'.
