I should probably add my room size is L shaped with a total sq ft. of approx 300 and running Rotel RA 02 and RCD 02. I have hardwood floors, the house is very open and with young kids, I will rarely play it loud. The other speakers I like are Monitor Audio S6 at $ 1200 cdn., AE EVO 3 at $ 1000, and PSB 4T at $ 800.00.
