Should I switch to a larger room?


My current listening room is 10x12. Since I live alone, I could make my master bedroom my dedicated listening room.  It is 13x18.  Switching rooms would be a PITA, but is it worth doing?  My speakers are MMGs and they will be getting the Peter Gunn mod in the fall.  I do have some room treatment from GIK Acoustics delivering in a few weeks, but what I ordered was based on my 10x12 room.

A dipole loudspeaker in a 10' x 12' room?!

A room with an 18' length is obviously more appropriate. That will allow the MMG's to be placed 5' from the wall behind them, 8' from the listening position, the listening position 5' from the wall behind it.

Before having your MMG's gunned, try to listen to the Eminent Technology LFT-8b, also a magnetic-planar dipole (though with a sealed dynamic woofer for 180Hz down), but one considerably superior to the MMG, even with the latter having been gunned.
