Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: small room - you need controlled directivity

Just a reminder.. the op did say he already narrowed it down to those four speakers.

OP - I would lean Pro-Ac of the four. But if you have it down to final four. You should be able to decide for yourself. Forums and reviews are best served for turning over some unknown rocks and maybe helping you add a couple speakers to the list of auditions. Never buy based on what other people tell you.

And while there are plenty of panel fans on this board.. in real life people I meet and the biggest Maggie dealer in Canada notes it's polarizing. Some love em some hate em. If you have not heard them or any panel try them for yourself. Since you like rock play it and crank it and compare. The sub suggestion you can ignore since you are evaluating the speaker's ability and you can add subs to the floorstander too. Probably with better integration.

So take Nosia, Nightwish, Slipknott, a crank the F out of it and see how it holds up on its own. Subs don't fix ribbon reproduction of upper midrange lower treble IMO.
