Your comment is irrelevant. I did not say you cannot pump deep bass into a room. What I said was that it will not sound right, and for two connected reasons. The first is that the smaller the room, the higher the Schroeder frequency (about 280 Hz in this room) and hence the frequencies of the room modes (not to mention their upper harmonics). The second is that the higher the frequency that you try to equalize, the narrower the listening spot. If you want good deep bass you need a large room with a low Schroeder frequency. And avoid square rooms.
Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room
I know that this is a tough one, because speakers are so subjective. My dedicated 2 channel listening room is only 10ft x 10ft. I listen to mostly jazz and rock. I currently use a Plinius SA100 Mk III (recapped and upgraded) driving Joseph Audio RM25XL's. I'm thinking of upgrading and was wondering what speakers would be a good upgrade for a small listening room. I like the Joseph Audio sound, but want more. I was thinking of Pulsars or maybe Perspectives. First, is my room too small for floor standing speakers? Second, what other speakers in the $8-10K range used would be a good fit in a small room?
