Do you use subs now? If so there is no going back. If not ignorance is bliss.
I can only speak to the Wilson’s. In order to get low bass out of them they need some room gain and need to be pretty close to the front wall. There is some magic between 24”-36” any more and the deep bass disappears. Closer to 24” seemed good (oddly close I know) but it is how I heard it. My guess is the bass driver drops off pretty quick and the low bass relies on the port. They are a small speaker and can run out of steam in a large room but within their limits have a good tone and are enjoyable.
