Hi Lake; I've been looking for speakers in this price range too (used), I recently read a review that indicated that the Circe's would/could overwhelm my 14 X 22 room. That said, they could "work" but only if they sound good at low volume settings, IMHO. I'm considering the Vand. 5s because the bass is room tunable (presently have the 3Asigs). Good Hunting. Craig.
