Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti

Look fine to me & in proportion with the room. Maybe put some good quality fake plants on them which you can remove when listening?

Show your wife the the next system pic of the 2024 system by dj & ask her it that would be acceptable?

I have the Volti Rivals in beautiful Red Gum w/ black grilles which I love & my wife does in comparison to Avantgarde Duos I owned several years ago which my brother called “ Dr Seuss Speakers”! Hilarious.

I think the Rivals, however are taller & pretty large overall. As previously mentioned, the Razz might work & give you a good percentage of the Volti sound for very reasonable money. 
 

I have some relatives that have to have their family room TV in an armoir, closed when company comes so it does not distract from the conversations.  I have an 85" TV in mine and my listening room 15' X19' is taken over to Maggie 3.7's, so guess how much alike we are.  I say build out that room.  Wife won,t miss you that much.

@acman3 I was thinking about your question last night while listening to my Volti. When I picked my pair up from Greg at his shop I had the good luck of being able to have quite a long listening session with several Volti models. The Razz, the Rival and a flagship prototype Greg has been working on. All were amazing. What I found really striking was how similar they all sounded, especially in the midrange. The presence and voicing, timing and scale were all so very close. On tracks with male vocal I literally heard what I could only describe as the sonorous, chest cavity vibrations, in each model it was the same. Unreal!

Yes the Rival and the prototype sounded larger, louder and more extended, but not by a whole lot.

My point being, if you decide to stay in your current room and need something a bit more svelte i.e. smaller overall footprint and visual presence, it may be an option to order a pair of Razz or Rival and choose from the many amazing and beautiful finish and grill cloth combos Greg offers. Additionally I may argue, depending on how old your Vitrora’s are, a probable improvement in sound. Greg seems to continually strive for better sound: drivers, materials, cabinet construction etc..

Just a thought.

Happy Holidays

Seems to me that your wife is not complaining about the size of those beauties...she is complaining about having an "audio room" in "her living room".  

Take her up on her word and build your space in the attic with all the attendant functions required.  Be sure to consult with an acoustic company and have a builder that understands what's required.  This is not just about nail guns and sheetrock.

Just my two cents.

I had a pair of Vittora's about 8 years ago.  If I hadn't retired and moved to a much smaller living space, I'd have kept them.  They were beautiful !  If you love the sound, I'd say keep them !
