RE: Magnepan 1.7 or 3.6 -small room!

Thanks, that was really helpful! The room has wooden floor and stone walls and ceiling. It is closed and not dedicated for listening. Unfortunately speakers can only be positioned on the long side, slightly asymmetrical. The room has a natural good sounding acoustics with other speakers I've had, including Elac FS409 which despite the two 18cm woofer did not produce invasive bass at all, rather very controlled bass.
The thing is I will be changing of place in about 6 months but I don't know we're exactly, but so can assume listening room will be as big as this one or slightly larger but not by much, and most likely it will not be a dedicated room.
Definitely realistic soundstage is more important to me than clean bass. Given your feedback I would tend to go for the 3.6, but the visual impact of such a large speaker in a small non dedicated room has to be considered as well.
