Buying Speakers Based on Specs

Hi,

Is it a good idea to buy a pair of speakers based on specification? Currently I have a pair of Paradigm Prestige 75F and I wish it had a little bit more bass. The frequency response is  44 Hz - 20 kHz.

I am eyeing the Spendor D7 which has a frequency response of  29Hz – 25kHz or the PMC Twenty5.24 with  frequency resp. of 27Hz - 25kHz. Based on the specs, these 2 speakers should give me more bass response, right?

I know, I know....audition the speakers in my home. But the problem the dealers in my city does not have in-home trials. 

Thoughts?

No, it's not a good idiea, and also, room acoustics!!

Good room acoustics can make your speakers sound a lot bigger and faster and tighter. :)


So, consider that first.
