Pass Labs XA30.8 for Dynaudio C1 Platinum

What is your room size?

I own the XA30.8 and I’m pretty sure it would have no problems driving your Dynaudio C1 speakers in the small to medium size room.
It has no issues driving the Martin Logan Montis where the panel impedance could drop under 1ohm. I doubt the Dyns are that unstable.  

The amp also pairs amazingly well with XP-12 preamplifier. 

Medium sized room but that really isn't the issue I have any concern over. I'm more or less interested in the output capabilities of the xa30.8. All too often I read that dynes like lots of power so I don't exactly want an amplifier to run out of steam. Which is why I posted this on agon. Thanks for the replies everyone, I appreciate it.

I use a Pass XA25 with my Dynaudio Heritage Specials, which are an 85db, 4 ohm load. The 25 watt Pass drives them very capably.

Few things - 

1. It’s not the quantity of the watts, it’s the quality. There’s no doubt about quality of power this amplifier delivers. 

2. The XA30.8 will put out over 100w into 4ohms. But you will most likely hardly push it there in the medium sized room. Should be no issues when it happens.

That's basically what I was thinking, but I learned long ago at an early stage in the audio hobby its better to overbuild a system as opposed to under estimate. Ideally I'd love to try the xa60.8 monoblocks, but I have a feeling they'd be a bit out of budget, and also at that point start to worry about power requirements for the rest of my equipment without having to make drastic changes.
