I searched the forum but can’t find an answer: is it true that speakers can be too big for a room? If so, how can one determine the appropriate size speaker for the room? I understand that positioning can be an issue with big speakers in a small room, but what about sound?
I’m probably going to be looking at used speakers in the next year, so I don’t expect to have the chance to do any auditioning at home. I would prefer floor standing speakers reasonably close to full range—something like Revel Performa3 f208 or KEF r11 possibly. The room is 13.75x11.6x8.1 ft (4.2x3.5x2.5 m) with one of the short walls covered with bookshelves and a corner desk.
