Small Room. Go for it or forget about it?


Well I am up against a wall.... Literally... I have been forced into a 12' x 12' room. Will be a monitor/tube setup. The more I read about small rooms, the more discouraged I am to even bother setting up a system. Please help restore faith!! I have been looking into Manley gear/ Proac/ Sonus Faber

Any insight would be fantastic

Very interesting as I'm preparing to move my system into an identically sized room. My concern is the square factor not the small size. Don't worry about the small size as my experience is the larger room is over rated unless you plan on having guests listen with you. For one to three people it's fine as long as you keep the furnishings to a minimum. I moved from a 17X15 room to a bedroom years ago and haven't looked back.
Sound treatment along with speaker selection is key. Check my system as I feel the sound in my small room is really good. I agree with the recommendation about 1st order crossover along with driver time alignment. Right now I'm looking at the best plan for sound treatment for the square room. Good luck.
