switch from Tekton 6.5t to Tekton mini Lore?

Thinking about making this switch to get more base response. Room is small 14' w x 16' d and speakers will be about 12" from back wall. They will be about 10' apart. All details about my system including a picture of the current setup is on my system page.

- What will I give up with this upgrade?
- What will I gain with this upgrade besides more bass (50hz vs 38hz low freq response)?
- Is my room too small for the mini Lores?

Don't think I want to go with a powered sub. Not much room to play with placement in my current room.

As a FYI, it looks like the Tekton 6.5t speakers are no longer made. I wonder why, as they sound great for their size...

TIA

Amen Chayro.
I used a pair of tiny Totem Rainmakers for years in a small 11x 13 bedroom, sounded good, but nothing like their famous Stereophile review that basically said they were greatest speaker of all-time.
On a whim I tried them in a 20x 17 room and those 4" drivers
filled that space with NO problem and sounded like the review if not better!
