Overkill for small room


Hello all - long time lurker, first time poster. I've enjoyed reading so many of these posts, and I feel like I'm learning so much from you guys. Thank you for that.

I am strongly considering a pair of Dynaudio 20i - I am aware they require serious amplification - but I suspect that they'll be too much for a small room

Room specs: (11 wide by 14 long, normal ceiling height with acoustical tile, carpet tile covering one entire wall, wall-to-wall carpet on top of cement slab, no basement).

Am I nuts? 

Thank you in advance.

I’ve owned the special 40’s. They work quite well with Jazz, classical, and most vocal instrumentation. 
 

Electronic, rock, hip hop. Yes. They will play. Though they do not accelerate well with that style of music. At least that was my experience. Pass labs xa25, Herron vtsp line stage. I have zero treatment in my room, with the exception of wall to wall office carpet for my entire apartment. Maybe it helps. Maybe it hinders. Went back to my old speakers.  My little part of the world is good now.
