...ignorance is bliss. It's also why I intend to never hear a pair of the 20.7s. I have little doubt that my reaction would be the same as yours: I like; I want!

I think that your setting would benefit from them and that your 4BSST2 will be fine. At volumes which would be acceptable in an apartment, my 'little' 150WPC valve amp has no trouble driving my 3.7s full range, and it sounds lovely. I can only imagine (but I'm trying not to ;-) how the 20.7s would sound like that.

I understand the comments others have made, but I also see the other side of the coin. At the levels permissible in your situation, the 20.7s are simply going to give you more of that sound you love so much. As I've never heard them, I can't say for sure, but I imagine the 20s are better than the 3s at any volume, and more so at each extreme.

Your plan sounds reasonable to me and I must confess a bit of envy.
