Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti


I've had these early prototype Volti speakers I bought from Greg  8-10 years ago, but I  am set up in the living room with these large speakers . Family and friends always complain about the size, and I just ignore them.  Lately, my wife who agreed to the purchase has been grumbling about their size. 

I've been considering going to a more normal sized speaker, but want to keep most of Volti horn sound. I drag in my Joseph Audio RM25xl speakers and after a few days, I  drag the Volti's back in.

Using Atma-Sphere D amps and Mp3 preamp. Bricasti dac and Elrod cables. I stuck an old picture in systems so you get the idea of the scale. I will get new pictures later and finish system. 

I know it's unlikely, but maybe one of you can think of something.

@acman3, no update on the potential new room so some thoughts.

1.  Have a frank discussion with your wife about her objections.  As others suggested is it the size of the speakers or actually all the components in the living room?

2.  If truly the size then show her the smaller options from Volti.  Maybe if she picked the finish that would make her happy.  This assumes you could accept a smaller version sonics.

3.  If it is actually the audio gear in the living room then the only real answer may be the attic conversion to dedicated room.
