Yes I have the Prelude Plus in my living room. They sound great. If you like the Prelude you will love the Plus.
I have some Infinity IL 30s...small 2 ways...in a budget system ...and have always enjoyed their punchy, bass.. not the overly warm, boomy bass that can sometimes plagues larger speakers....I always felt a 6 inch 2 way the way to go...they don't require stands...image well...and provide enough bass they don't sound thin...

I also am considering various speakers in the $2K range and started looking at the Prelude Plus. I would be putting them in a 13x23 living room with high ceiling and facing an open architecture into the front hall and dining area. They would have a wall behind them for bass reinforcement with that rear-firing port. I also have a couple of nice little 8" subs I can put with them to augment the bass down to around 36 Hz.

Under those conditions, do you think the PPs be up to filling an area that size without straining? I listen to a lot of acoustic music (vocals, jazz) and also large scale symphonic, but not at headbanging levels. Do you think the Prelude Plus would be up to that size space?
