Small room; Audio Physic Scorpio or WB Trinity??


I need your thoughts fellow music/gear lovers. I know this is largely an exercise in self-indulgence, and I know that our cherished sound is subjective, but I would like advice/observations from some A'gon experts. We moved to a new home, and my listening room is, sadly, 11' x 11'. I doubt we will be moving for many years (if ever), and I would like to optimize this compromised space. I currently own a pristine (and very much loved) pair of Audio Physic Scorpio. Local audio pundits seem to roundly recommend that I move to a quality monitor speaker, given the Scorpio's prodigious bass and size. A very highly regarded A'gon dealer is willing to trade a pair of Wilson Benesch Trinity for my Scorpio. I have heard great things about the Trinity. Thoughts, learned peers?? My associated equipment is as follows:

BAT VK500 amplifier (with BAT PAK)
PS Audio PCA2 preamp
VPI Scout Signature tt
Sumiko Blackbird cartridge
Musical Surroundings Nova II phono pre
Cary Audio 303/300 CD player
MIT Z AC conditioner

Thanks. David

Don't know about either of your speaker choices, but my audio gear lives in a room sized 11' X 12', so I do know your problem.
I have tried many speakers. Monitors work the best, IMO.
Not just sonically, but aesthetically as well.
BTW, I had WB Arcs in my room for awhile. They were quite nice, worked very well.
