The best speaker for a small room...at any price point.

@supermerio From your feedback it sounds like I would be foolish not to do a home demo of the Kaya 45. The dealer is reluctant, but it’s my money so he may have to reconsider that stance.

@spinaker01 Based on my store demos my consensus is down to the following:

Vivid Kaya 45 (ask for home demo)
Paradigm Persona 3F (already OK’ed for home demo)
TAD ME1 (no need for home demo)

have you Demoed wilson speakers?

i never thought i would own one since i was never impressed 
every time i hear it in a demo room, but in my place and my
gear; it was a different story — magnificent!  Finally found
my speakers.

my sasha 2 is much better than my previous giya g3 in my
very small listening room.

Love my Wilson Cubs (with sub). Room is 14 x 14.  

@supermerio I have heard Wilson a few times. I liked the Alexa 1 a lot, thought the Alexandria XLF was amazing, and also recently demoed the Sabrina ($16K).

The Sabrina was physically small and was the only candidate for my current room. However, in the very large space I demoed them I thought the bass was a little heavy. It was OK in the large space but I did not think it was going to be translate for me in a smaller space.

Your feedback on the side firing woofers is really giving me pause on the Vivid. No deal unless I can do a home demo.

IMHO, if you need room treatments or a sub to make a particular pair of speakers work in our room, you have the wrong pair of speakers.
