Should I switch to a larger room?

My current listening room is 10x12. Since I live alone, I could make my master bedroom my dedicated listening room.  It is 13x18.  Switching rooms would be a PITA, but is it worth doing?  My speakers are MMGs and they will be getting the Peter Gunn mod in the fall.  I do have some room treatment from GIK Acoustics delivering in a few weeks, but what I ordered was based on my 10x12 room.

Have a large front room with 16” or so vaulted ceilings, 
left speaker opens to open hallway, staircase, right speaker has pillows and  such behind it, as it’s in a corner, so soaking up the bass is important to the right side.


   Had main system in basement for years, then moved to upstairs room.  Sounded better in basement with drop ceiling,  but the larger room is amazing! I have small towers mentioned by many on here as “firewood” compared to the amps I’m using for them. 

  Sure give it a try, see how it sounds,..


if you don’t like it, move it back.
I love mucking around with my gear,…….gives me an excuse to not listen to the wife’s barking orders.
