I owned the 1SCs for about 18 months. I was driving these with the Densen Beat 100 integrated, 60wpc. I auditioned both of these A/B at the dealer. The Dynaudio are a bit more analytical and more bass. However, the 1SCs won me over with their transparency, imaging and soundstage. I sold these as I came to find my room was too big for the speakers. BTW, a friend brought over his Plinius 8150i at one point and this amp brought out bass that I never thought was possible from these monitors. But, the 8150i was edgy on the HF, where the Beat was much better overall. Matching an amp to either one of these is going to be the challenge. Neither are very efficient and are very sensitive to up-stream components
Dynaudio 1.3SE and Proac 1SC
Has anyone had the chance to compare these two speakers. Are they easy to drive. I am comparing them to the Aerial 5.
