So, far you all share some of the same thoughts I have. I'm looking for a pair of floorstanders that the bass will not overwhelm my room. I really wanted the Centaur Majors or the Centaur but they never come available locally or nearby. I have pretty much just given up. The one thing I truly love about the Apogees is the midrange. I don't have loud listening habits. I try and extract as much information that I can in my small space with the best dynamics that I can get. I considered horns but I don't think I;m ready for in my face in this little room just yet. I haven't gotten a single response on the Eton 8.1's. They are a better match for my room than the Slant 6's but I don't know about the midrange. Will or does it rival the Apogee Centaur line or other? I would also consider Electrostatic speakers (Not old Quads, didn't like them). I have had Magnepans and I had them singing in my room (MG12's). But they had to come out too far in my room. I ended up with a pair of Spica TC60's and they have served me very well. I want to replace the subs and TC60's with a full range speaker and so far no luck.
Thanks
