Selling Dynaudio c2 what next???

Hi I'm new to this forum and was hoping someone could help me or guide me on the right track.
I need to sell my Dynaudio c2 fronts and confidence centre speakers because I've moved to a smaller place and am not happy with the way they sound anymore.
Everything sounds to overpowering.
The rest of my set up is.
Bryston 4bsst2 running fronts, Arcam avr600 doing centre and rears.
Ps audio dac mk2 and transporter, Bryston bp 26 and Cambridge audio 751 for movies.
I had a listen to a few wilson benesch speakers and the ones that I enjoyed the most were the Act.
I can't get a home demo and don't want to spend that kind of money without a home demo.
Could anyone give me feed back on this brand of speaker or something close or better sounding without being to fatiguing. That is my only concern about the Acts.
My budget is 15-20k that's including a centre speaker.
Thank you.

Thank you all for your feedback.
Will have a listen on the weekend to a pair of c1s.
Would love to try some pass labs amplification, just trying to find somewhere that has both brands.

Thanks for your feedback honeyooi, the raidho c1.1 look interesting and yes my budget would be 10-15k so not sure what the sound characteristics is like with those speakers with the gear I have?
Just as long as it's not to fatiguing.

Thanks Xti16
Will try and have a listen to theses speakers.
Price is quite a big difference compared to the Dyns, wonder if performance is worth the $ difference?
Will have a listen anyway.
Thanks again.

Do yo think that my Bryston 4bsst2 would be ok to drive these speakers?
Or would I need to upgrade the power amp as well?

Had a listen to some Dynaudio c1 s
Very happy with the sound, so looks like I'm going to stick with the smaller Dyns.
I have 1 other problem I forgot to mention, I like the Bryston Dyn combo for music but the arcam doing centre and rear duties for movies doesn't sound great to me.
So my question is is there a power amp that's great at doing both duties.
The reason I ask is because I don't have the space for 2 power amps.
So I would have to sell the Bryston but what do you think would be a good replacement for music and movies?
