Dynaudio Special 25 vs Sonus Faber Extrema


I need to replace my JM Lab Mezzo Utopia speakers with something a little smaller but I don't want to go all the way to a small standmount - the two listed above have reasonably deep bass for their size. My room is 23 x 12 x 11ft, firing across the 12ft dimension (unavoidable). Rest of the system is:

Sony SCD-777es (transport)
dCS Purcell/Elgar (dac and volume control)
Pass Labs X600
Mezzo Utopia

Any thoughts on these, or any other suggestions?

Many thanks,

Colinh

I just purchased a pair of special 25's and love them. My room is of similar size to yours. I am driving them with Classe' power amp with great results.
