Budget floorstading with a good waf.... Help

As posted on another thread, I just purchased a pair of Larsen 6s after seeing the brand at the Newport audio show last weekend. They are placed directly up against the long wall in our living room, and I absolutely love the sound they make. These are the only speakers I have purchased in the last twenty five years that my wife actually approved.

Johnnyb53,

1- My wife's aesthetic sense is probably like the majority or wives: they don't have a problem with any speaker... as long as they can't see it. The Larsen's aren't quite that invisible but they are close. She says that they look like boxed plant stands (???)

2- In regards to music, I listen to just about everything except Hip Hop, Country Western or Tejano/Polka music. A typical listening session may include Beatles, classical symphony, Joni Mitchell, Wagner opera, Sonny Rollins and Back organ cantatas. That is why I like the Larsens so much; they sound great with all the music I listen to in my room.

3- I had a pair of Salks several years ago - Pharos, not Song Towers. They sounded great but were way too big for my room and were very demanding of exactly the right placement, way out from the front and side walls. They also had a very narrow sweet spot, as I recall. The midrange was very sweet sounding, but frankly I much prefer the Larsens. My opinion, no one elses.
