I think the room will work, it's the Marantz that I think will be the problem. I would take the dealer up on listening to them with it. Or better yet get the dealer to let you bring them home. That is what dealers and paying full price is all about, getting to check this stuff out completely and make the right decision the first time.
Are Revel F12 speakers too much for a small room?
I'm very interested in a pair of Revel F12 speakers.
My system presently consists of a Marantz PM 7001 integrated amplifier (70Watt/Ch Into 8 ohms/100 watts/Ch Into 4 ohms), with two pairs of stacked large Advents and a Hsu subwoofer. My listening room is rather small, though-roughly 11 x 13 x 9h.
The Revels really sounded terrific at the dealer. Of course, the system at the dealer had vastly more power than I have in a fairly large room. The dealer suggested I come in with my Marantz, which I may still do, but it is a fair amount of trouble to get behind to disconnect and reconnect.
I can upgrade my system if I need more power, but my dedicated listening room is there for the duration. Are the Revels too much for the room size?
