R.,
Hmmm, it seems that Dunlavy has significantly changed its website within the past few weeks. I seem to recall that a local company in CO. purchased DAL and perhaps they have changed names of speakers or consolidated the line, e.g., I was unable to find any mention of the Dunlavy speaker cables or interconnects. On the other hand, I checked a few Dunlavy retailers, and they still offer the SM1's as current.
If you are interested in learning more, you could do a search here and Audioasylum.com on sm1, and check out user reviews at audioreview. I have owned the speakers for about 2 years, and you can find my impressions at Audioreview, which by coincidence I filled out a few days ago.
In certain respects, your room configuration will pose some difficulties because of the differences in distance from side walls, but I have found that by varying the relative distance from back to side walls, I was able to overcome a similar, albeit less difficult, challenge (one of my side walls is a 1/2 wall between kitchen and dining/living room). For example, by making the distance to back walls relatively smaller, imaging became tighter, perhaps because the reflected wave off the back wall (which IS symetrical in my system) became relatively stronger than off the side walls (which are not perfectly symetrical). No matter which speakers you choose, something you may wish to consider.
