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.

I am in a larger room using C2s with a pair of JL fathom 110 subs. C1s with a sub are nowhere near the performance, but agree C1 with sub v C2 w/out could be close.

FWIW - I acutaly think the C2 is a great spot in the confidence line. C1 is great monitor but short on bass and C4 only is really good for very large rooms. the C2 gives me, at leat, monitor like accuracy with very nice bass. Adding the pair of JL's made it perform incredibly well.

For your size room, C1 with a sub will be the best.
