Wilson Sasha 2 - too much speaker for room size?


Hi,

I am thinking about purchasing a pair of Wilson Audio Sasha 2 speakers. I have two related questions.  My dedicated listening room is 15’ x 18’ with 8’ ceilings and I am a little concerned that the speakers may be too large for the room for good bass response.  

1)  Is it likely that they will over pressurize the room?

2)  Are there any general guidelines to follow regarding total woofer surface area vs. room volume?

 

Thank you in advance for your thoughts/opinions

I have Sashas in a room 14 x 20 with 10ft ceilings. I can assure you with a packed bookcase on the back wall and no other treatments other than curtains behind the speakers, there is excellent bass response, texture, soundstage and imaging. My floor is wood and the walls and ceilings are plaster. The rest of my system is ARC Ref 40, ARC 150se, BelCanto cdp and VPI HRX table with Lyra Atlas, Shunyata Triton2 and Hydra. All pcs (Sigma) and cabling by Shunyata or, with some ICs Audioquest WEL Signature.
