I think your room would support some 1.6s.....
Ever considered a 'pre loved' pair for not much more than the LRS?

Follow Ups:
You are probably correct, but the boss has decreed that the speakers be as small as possible. I was able to convince her to go with the 0.7 but the 1.7 would be out of the question.
I married the perfect woman - the downside is that everything that goes wrong is my fault.
Man, what's wrong with you guy's? "not allowed", "the boss has decreed"? and all that kind of crap.
Who usually works the most? who usually makes most of the money?........THE MAN! and then when you want to reward yourself for all that hard work with a nice speaker you get whistled back because it doesn't fit in with some "artsy fartsy" home deco shit..........just buy the damn speakers, don't ask first, just tell them, they can pick the washing machine + dryer.
This topic comes up every few months - "you guys have no cojones", etc.
Simply put it comes down to do you want to make your wife happy or yourself. In my case, if my wife isn't happy then I am not happy. And in fact, there is no boss - I was just using a little hyperbole.
Question: How long have you been happily married?B
BTW, I don't generally consume alcohol beyond an occasional beer or wine. OTOH, I make my wife a vodka martini almost every night. Lately she is into Buffalo Grass vodka.

LOL, are you kidding? Married? I challenge anyone to give me one sane reason why anybody would want to get married, the only time marriage made sense was back in the "Stone Age" when uneducated women were stuck at home giving birth to a dozen or so kids while daddy had to work all day, it's just a kind of insurance policy that says"don't you dare leave me now I'm old and fat or I'll take your Maggies and your money!"
You may have guessed by now, I'm not married, for the last 36 I've been living with the same woman, and together we have a 20 year old daughter. For me, if the relationship is good for both, that's great, if it isn't, then it's time to move on, married or not. Marriage is not a commitment, it's just an excuse to throw a party, having children together, now thats a lifetime commitment.
Before I can make someone else happy, I need to be happy myself, so, putting the Maggies I want in the living room will eventually make everybody happy!
Agreed. If you are allowed big speakers they are going into the basement 'man cave'.
The only thing she should bring to the table in considering new equipment is a MARTINI!
I'm can post that because she'll never see it. LOL!
That's the way! Now grab a few martinis and show her who's wearing the pants.......LOL!
AFTER a SUCCESSFUL Audition?
Would the spouse go for some 1.6s at a potential trade-up cost of much LESS than the LRS new?
Full disclosure would mean maybe +300$ cost V the new LRS.......
I'm in a similar boat. But I made it clear when we got married (pre 1990!) that my panels would stay
FOREVER.
