Best standmounts with a 7" woofer/driver

Hi All,

Love to her recommendations on bookshelf speakers with a 7 inch woofer. I know I should not focus everything on driver size, but I would like a bookshelf that can move some air. Big sound. I currently own Revival Atalante 3.They have a nice 7 inch driver. Just shopping for possible upgrades. My room is 14' X 12'

Please share your best bookshelf speakers... High end only.

Cheers

Woofer size is meaningless a 5 inch woofer in a transmission line will outperform a much larger woofer in a conventional cabinet 

So design is more important then size of driver 

 

If you want great low bass from a compact loudspeaker look at an alta audio Alyssa very tight and deep bass 5k using a proprietary hybrid bass loading  design

Persona B is my favorite, but they need care with placement and component matching.

It's hard to beat the Atalante 3s unless you more than double the price (or used).

The Dynaudio Contour 20 might be similar but still better materials, more bass
