I think you are pushing it with the D38's in that room. The D80's will be too large I'm afraid. You might consider the new D28 for that size space.
Proac D80 experience? & Room Size
I have been contemplating purchase of a pair of Proac D38's, although have just come across a pair of D80's at a good price.
I can't really find any information on the D80's, and would really appreciate any advice from people who have tried both the 38 and 80.
Additionally, I am a little concerned about my room size. The actual living area I listen in is 17' x 17', but 1/2 of the back and left corner are open into an additional room. I sit around 9' back from my current speakers. Is this too small for the 80's, and will they be too bass heavy?
Ultimately I'd love to get the 80's at a great price, but certainly not if it presents no benefits to the 38 in my room.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
