Shahinian Obelisk vs VandersteenTreo

HI fellow ’goners.
I own the Shahinians, thinking of upgrading to the Treos. The Obelisks sound a little smallish for the room... And the room is not square, it's a big living area of a house, with access to the second floor's roof. 
Will this be an upgrade or just a sideward move?
Room approx 60m2, driven by Musical Fidelity A5.5, 250wpc at 8Ohm (thinking of replacing this one too).
Mostly jazz and acoustic music, less frequently - classical and pop.
Thanks!

Huh? 
What, the speakers have no internal threads?
Maybe you can start a Virtual System page.
We'll sort this out...

They do, but they are not metal: just the wooden stuff the speakers are made of. Not used to this.  Ruined q of an inch of thread. 
Guess they need to go deeper..

 Try a bar of soap or beeswax on the threads
 Of course, if you got the right threads and legnth that is.
Maybe its time for the correct items above?
Best,

gently lay speakers on sides and Tuesday take a photo / email / call Vandersteen
i have never setup Quattros but have 5a and 7 and this does not seem right.... which may also explain your sellers loss of the missing cones....

I saw you mention TechHiFi.  In Syracuse on "The Hill" across from Marshall Street? Bought my first stereo there from Lynn. Bartended across the street at the Orange while in school. Wow, that was 45 years ago.
