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.

In a room very close in dimensions to the OP''s, I use a pair of SF GM's with excellent results. I previously had the SF Auditor M's in that room, but upgraded to the GM's because I found I prefer the GM's musical presentation. But the Auditor M's were still excellent in that room. Bottom line, given the OP's room dimensions, my experience indicates that either of the SF choices being considered will work very well.
With your front end equipment the Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento is a better choice. Should be a significant improvement over the Grand Piano Home which isn't exactly up to audiophile standards. It doesn't come as a surprise as the GM costs above $10,000 if I'm not mistaken.

Good luck.
In the used market the C1 and SF auditor M are close in price and the C2 and SF Memento are close. Will the SF also need a sub? I agree with Ryder the GPH needs to be replaced.
Most of the my local dealer stopped using the SF line but still carrty the Dynaudio line. I like the look of the Memento speakers but do not care for the stands (strings).Thanks for all the input.
I use a pair of Auditor Ms with a REL B2 with great success in a room 12' X 18' X 8'. Prior to the SF I had Dynaudio 52SE - a very fine speaker for the $$. Dynaudio makes fabulous speakers along with SF. I prefer the visual presentation of the SF. I am using McIntosh equipment with my SF.
That room is too small for the C1 IMO. They really need quite a bit of space to integrate and perform up to their potential. The 11' dimension would prohibit this unfortunately.

I had S1.4s in a 14 x 15' room and always felt that the room was quite a bit too small for them. The C1s have a bolder sound than the S1.4s and require a larger room than the S1.4

Sonus Fabers might work better in the smaller room, not sure as I'm not too familiar with them
