Look at my system and learn. One of the biggest mistakes perpetuated is the " right sized" speaker for the room. Nice way to massively, inherently downgrade experience. Free of bass issues, so lose out on everything else. Not my idea of better. :)
Is the ideal multi-way a 3-way with limited bass?
Hear me out here.
3 way speakers with the traditional large woofer benefit from high bass output, and improved midrange clarity due to the lack of Doppler distortion affecting the mids, but with a lot of modest listening areas the big woofer can also be detrimental. They produce too much bass, which together with room gain and room modes causes flabby and exaggerated bass.
So, lacking ARC or EQ capabilities perhaps the best compromise for the purist is to have a big woofer 3-way but with a limited -3 dB point, say 45 Hz or so.
