Thank you for your observatiions GSM, if you note, they mirror our suggestions and observations.
We recommended a compact floor stander with prodigious bass and high efficiency and high power handling, with the opption of room correction which was what we were recommending, not that these were the only speakers nor that these are the "best" loudspeakers in the world it was just that their designer likes to build speakers that will fill large rooms and play loud without fear of blowing up.
It was for this very reason we brought in the iine in the first place.
We also gave examples of a few other systems that might work as well that were from other companies.
We have found even if you are somewhat close to a speaker in a large room it helps but doesnt take away the feeling that the sound is not filling the room.
We mentioned that at both the Cap and Axpona shows the huge systems by Vac and Von Schweikert were in a titantically large room probably 80 feet wide and 40 foot deep, big high ceiling and even those mammouth loudspeakrs failed to sound really big enough to sound convincing in that space, if the room was half the size, the sound would have been extraordinary.
In a big room you have a multitude of problems, which do not occur in a much smaller room.
