If you feel you need to put the port plugs in a pair of C1s, then you might have them placed too close to the wall. I've had the Contour S1.4s and S3.4s and when the plugs go in, the midrange detail and dynamics suffer. I used both with a sub crossed over at around 35 Hz (for the S1.4s) or 30 Hz (for the S3.4s I have now) and they do not need port plugs. The only Dynaudios I use with port plugs are those in my home theater that have to be right up against or mounted on a wall.

I wish I had room in my office for a pair of C2's. The C1's are only 6" from front wall and I tried them with and without the port plugs and the C1's and the JL F112's sound much better with the C1's plugged and crossed at 80 hz at 48db slope (which sounded in my room much better than less steep slopes).

Did you purchase the C1?

I found that the Dynaudio C1 stands really improved in terms of SQ (dynamics, clarity, etc) with 50 pounds of lead shot in each column (enclosed within plastic bags I got from Mick at Dynaudio, Main USA office). I have carpeted floors and I also put the spikes into a Herbie's glider, then into small piece of MDF wood, then that on top of 4 Rollerblock Jrs HDSE. Huge improvement.

I'm not trusting a plastic bag to secure lead dust and this hobby is not worth that kind of risk. I used sanitized and dried sand in my Stand4 and Contour S1.4s. That worked very well. My $0.02
