I have a similar situation with a 12.5 x 13.5 living room with an adjacent 80% open 4 x 13.5 hallway that contains my record storage. IMO a modest sized floor stander minus a sub(space/continuity issues) will give the best results. Hopefully Sonus Faber will update/improve the Nova series in 2024 which would make a very good speaker into a class leader.
speakers for small room
I have a small living room. My amp is an Accuphase powering some Harbeth P3ESRs and a KEF KC62 subwoofer. Sounds great for acoustic and jazz. However, I also like big symphonic works and the Harbeths don't cut it for that. I'm looking for something more dynamic and something that can push more air to give me that grand experience of listening to big works. Any recommendations? Assume a budget of $10000.
TIA

Having owned many Harbeths including the P3. The Super HL5 plus ( I own them) will have the same sound signature as the P3 with a more dynamic sound that you are looking for! BTW, you should update your virtual system! Here is one of many reviews! https://www.stereophile.com/content/harbeth-super-hl5plus-xd-loudspeaker |
The room is 13' x 11' with 3 walls, the other side opening up to the rest of the house. I've thought about the SHL5s but thought that they might overpower the room. I think I'd like a floorstander (have never had any) as it would be a bigger change than just a bigger standmount. Totally open to used. Would a floorstander be too much?
