Dynaudio C1 vs current speaker-Wilson Benesch ARC

Components: Conrad Johnson Premier 350, CJ Act 2 Series 2 Pre, Audio Research CD7, MIT cables & power cords. Stillpoints ESS suspension rack with sound pucks. Room: 12x12. My room is far from perfect. It's my small office with lots of small shelves, but the sound can be amazing at times, depending on the recording. The ARCS are about 7 feet apart, but within a foot from the wall (no choice) and have tremendous detail, have good resolution at the lowest level (#1), but can be quite fatiguing after an hour or so. I listen for 7-8 hours a day at times. Just curious if the C1's would make a difference.

C1 need to be further than 1 ft in the room.

ARC are great speakers....but you may have to try something like Focal Micro Utopia BE that is front ported.

the brightness you are hearing is most likely room related---a square room is aweful for that.
