switch from Tekton 6.5t to Tekton mini Lore?


Thinking about making this switch to get more base response. Room is small 14' w x 16' d and speakers will be about 12" from back wall. They will be about 10' apart. All details about my system including a picture of the current setup is on my system page.

- What will I give up with this upgrade?
- What will I gain with this upgrade besides more bass (50hz vs 38hz low freq response)?
- Is my room too small for the mini Lores?

Don't think I want to go with a powered sub. Not much room to play with placement in my current room.

As a FYI, it looks like the Tekton 6.5t speakers are no longer made. I wonder why, as they sound great for their size...

TIA

Bass is a funny thing. It's all dependent on how the speaker works with your room. Sometimes a smaller speaker will give a more satisfying bass response than a larger one because of the way it interacts with the room. IMO, in the average living room space, it's all trial and error till you find what works.

I used a pair of tiny Totem Rainmakers for years in a small 11x 13 bedroom, sounded good, but nothing like their famous Stereophile review that basically said they were greatest speaker of all-time.
On a whim I tried them in a 20x 17 room and those 4" drivers
filled that space with NO problem and sounded like the review if not better!
Totem, like Dynaudio, are generally big hitters for their size and also benefit from lots of room to breathe.
