"[My room is roughly semi-circular (actually more parabolic) with floor-to-ceiling glazing along the curved wall - 1000 sq ft with low 7'7" ceiling height. Speakers are in the middle of the room facing across to one side of the curved wall - you see the problem?]"

I would say that with that very odd shaped and "difficult" room, any opinion upon any speaker and how well it may function there is going to be speculative at best.

I can only suggest that you will need to try before you buy. As you are in the UK that should not be too difficult to arrange. I have never had any trouble over the years in arranging this kind of thing. Whereabouts is your new location? Do you have a reasonably local Quad dealer?

NB: I am not sure that high powered transistor amps are the best match for Avantgarde Unos. They are designed for use with low powered, probably single ended tube jobs. Hence the high sensitivity. And why they have that "tingle" factor.

Budget?
