Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

One simple solution . . .

Utilize your A-25s!

Back in the '70s one local record store had two pair of A-25s mounted at ceiling corners pointing down at 45 degrees. They sounded surprisingly good and with a wide range of music. Two pair were needed as it was not a huge store but much larger than your bedroom. I would avoid corner mounting since the 3-plane intersection would likely produce too much bass and imbalance the sound.

Are your A-25s original? If so I'll also suggest upgrading the cap in the crossover to a better quality modern one of the same value. Also, I prefer removing the wire screen from the tweeter. At ceiling hight there is little chance for damage to the dome tweeter. ;^)

Also a few Inmates have recommended upgrading the tweeter. Do a search to find specifics.
