Well after much deliberation with the wife, and some serious measuring and planning, I think we decided to divide the room instead of increasing the speaker budget.

Any comments on the suitability of the M22/VP100/QS4 set for a room 12 by 18 by 8?

The smaller room also offers the advantage of complete light control for a front projector, but does mean we will have to sit closer to the screen/speakers. The front row will be about 9-10' and the second row about 13-14'.

That sound better?
