I moved from a house with a large listening room to a much smaller condominium ( I think there was a divorce or something in there). The 801’s are in a close if not nearfield position and never sounded better (testament to the great concrete build quality).
Another move to a larger condo and listening room ( 18’ x 20’) is on track by the end of the year.
I will try the 801’s first in the new place first but I like the idea of new speakers in there. WAF not an issue btw.
