I have a set of Tympani IIIA. They worked surprisingly well even in a small room, like 12.5 x 10 x 7 feet, although with a limited listening area. Also used them in a larger room, 20 x 13 x 8 feet. Mine were heavily converted many years ago. I disliked the vague imaging and removed the drivers from the flimsy baffles and placed them in a different frame, including cutting off the edge around the tweeter to have it as close as possible to the mid. The drivers were grouped in two speakers, bass+bass+mid+tweeter each side. Active crossover set at 100 Hz, 4th order (24 dB/octave). Now my IIIA is out of order, need new wiring and new Mylar for mids and tweeters. If I get time for it, I will re-wire the basses, have all the material for it.
