Magnepan, Ohm, Spatial or ??

What size room?

John is great and knows his speakers.  I tend to think he sizes "one" down.  BUT I like bass a bit (not crazy, but I do like it).

Also, if you are in a basement, or on a concrete floor that can really change the bass response.  I have speakers that if they are on my second or third floor - almost boomy.  In my finished basement... tight, punchy bass.  

Not sure I would be afraid of the 2000's... 

I've got wood floors.  If the 1000's don't work I assume I could just get the 2000s.

The question is whether the 2Ce's are too big for the room......

On upper levels I put my ohm 100s on Auralex subdude pads to tame the bass compared to foundation level. 
Isolation from suspended plywood floors is almost always a good idea IMHO. 

I interchange Maggies and Ohms with room corrected subs. The presentation is just different.  With some material I prefer the Maggies, but for most it’s Ohm.   The biggest difference  (to my ear) is the weight and body that the Ohms deliver.  On massed voices (for example), the Ohms are dramatically more realistic sounding (again MHO)
