It all comes down to taste...what you listen to, and how you like to listen to it. Speakers, IMHO, all have different 'voices', much like us. Room acoustics vary so much that a given unit in one room sounds terrific, whereas in another sound like garbage. And then there's the option of 'ignoring the room' and going to active eq.
I've opted for the latter, going 'flat' as possible. It sounds a little odd at first, but in a short time you wonder why it's not a more common approach.
I've two sets of speakers, BTW. A more conventional array, and a set of DIY Walsh omnis. Both lean on a sub for a bit of bass extension.
Anyhow...let your ears be your guide, and let your wallet follow. ;)
