I'm not as technical as most of you guys but I agree with Mapman. My L.R. is about 16'X14' and would love to have a pair of JBL L-300's or 4333's but it just doesn't seem like the room's big enough for them. So I have JBL L-100T's with updated crossovers and the smaller speakers sound great in this size room.
Speakers "Too Big" for room
I have an office with KEF LS50 speakers. I’m gonna try to move in some large Infinity full-range speakers. Typically, conventional wisdom would say that these speakers are too big for the room. I’ll know for sure how they will sound but, why would anyone say that. Why can’t you put large speakers in a small room???
