Of course, if you are completely happy with a nearfield presentation and one good seating position in a small room then there is no problem. My problem is that, having gone from a 10' x 12' room to a 12' x 33' one, I can no longer deal with the intensity of nearfield listening on a full time basis. But none of us should lose the ability to deal with changing circumstances in life and if I had to go back to a nearfield set up in a 10' x 12' room again, I would want loudspeakers that might occasionally allow for a midfield perspective. I would probably buy speakers that could be placed in the corners or against the front wall and I would shove my listening chair almost all the way back to the opposite wall, giving me close to 9 or 10 feet of listening distance. Distance in listening (at least in the relative sense) can be "like a breath of fresh air" now and then...
