KEF blades 2 or Dynaudio C4?

Hi guys, I am trying very soon the Luxman monos M900. I am wondering based on your experience and knowledge which speakers of these two would be a better match for them?
My room 18x12. High ceilings.
I prefer low volume music effortless neutral sound. I had owned KEF 3 and I liked them a lot.
But today I asked three dealers and I got mixed opinions. 
I do appreciate your time giving me your opinion. Kind regards.
Thank you.

I am using in a second system a pair of Dynaudio special 40. All can I say is wow.
That's one of the reasons that I started getting curious about the confidence line. I just can imagine the C4 platinum sound.
But KEF reference is a sound I already like.
I need to decide in the next week.

@mountainsong  If you are in S. Cal area or can fly in. These guys in Newport Beach have the Blades with the Luxman m900u amp (also the C900u preamp)

I think A'Gon username pokey77 gave his impressions on this system back in Feb 2018 time-frame.

@theothergreg I appreciate your feedback.

Audiotroy thank you.
Do you think the blades 2 will be an step up from the reference 5. I like the look of traditional speaker more but performance is what really counts. 
Thanks

I have the C4 but only listened the the Kef Blade at the show so it may be not fair to compare.  The Kef Blade is not my cup of tea.  It sounded thin and cold comparing to the C4
