System and speakers in a large room vs in a small room?


I have heard a recording of my Tetra 606 speakers in a large room with a couple of hundred people and the sound was spectacular! It seems that a large space allows the speakers to “breath”.
I used to have the top line Tannoy Westminster Royals. Definitely felt that I never really heard them in my normal size living room. Do larger speakers perform better in large spaces?

I also love it when people ask “What are the best speakers” to buy.  I had a friend retire to Hilton Head who has a cathedral style home.  He showed me a review of some Epos Speakers that he had just bought and raved about them.  When we came for a visit he had these two little monitors mounted on wall in this massive space.  No sub or center channel.  It sounded ridiculous and unfortunately I couldn’t refrain from offering an opinion.  We haven’t been invited back
