Dynaudio Confidence 5

I have just found a pair of the these speakers used and I would like to hear of your expirience with them.
I currently use a pair of Quad ESL-63, would the Confidence 5 be step up the ladder?
I have read about the Dynaudios and they seem to be a correctly designed speaker?
I have one reservation about the Confidence 5, which is the rather high bass cut of (43 hz -1,5 db), do they sound thin?
Would they intergrate well with 2 Vandersteen 2wq subs?
My room is about 200 square feet with about 9 feet to the ceiling.

Any comments would be very nice.

Thanks in advance

Thank you for responding to my post. I think I might go for the Dynaudios, since I think they have a lot of the qualities I am looking for.
As fare as amplifiers go I will have to try different brands, but the reason I though of the NEMO is the fantistic bass everybody says they have.
But I will have to try some tubes as well.

Best regards

Don't go tubes. They wont mesh well. You need beefy solid state for these speakers. If I werer you i would get the pass X-350 that just came on audiogon. That would be an ideal match. The nemos are a lot more and may not be worth the extra money. But.... if you can get em for a good price go for it as they have tons of current.

How about a Chord amp? I think Dynaudio uses Chord amps in their professional line of speakers.
