Alan: Thanks for the concise update. I appreciate your wisdom.

I do have a follow-up question. If my dimensions of the room are 16 by 24, with a 9 foot ceiling, wouldn’t you say the 80s are a bit much? Also, I'm worried that I can not put them 3 feet from the walls. My wife has issues with them being so out. So don't you think the 80s are too much? Also, how far must the 60s be from the wall to sound right? Overall, to me--and without having heard either--considering the size of my room, the 60s are sounding more appealing.
