I say go w/ the smaller Eheim. It is more compact and quieter. It sounds like space is a concern for you so why push it? I have a 1250 and while I like it very much, I only got it because my system has two radiators, a reservoir, a a future of multiple waterblocks. I really think the 1048 will be fine for you, and you'll be happy with it.
