Bob -
My local Dyn dealer told me that Dynaudio was dissatisfied with the C5's because of the way that they interact with the floor with respect to bass response. He told me that if I put a pair of C5's on a cement floor I'd find them thin sounding. He indicated that the new Confidence series, with their attention to vertical dispersion control, directly address this.
That seems to sync up with your experience with the Dunlavy's - probably floor and ceiling, since your ceiling is low.
I'm guessing that my local dealer would say that the C4 would work very well in your room, given it's size, the cement floors, and despite the low ceiling. He suggested that my 14x18 w/ slab floor and 8' ceiling might benefit from the added bass. Your room should be a good match.
