If you think you can't put everything in the same box you haven't been paying attention to newer designs. The Devaliet Phantom Premiere will go down to the teens with two 6.5 inch drivers. Genelec 8361A in room down in the 20's same with Dutch and Dutch.
Bass Driver Size - how much better is an extra inch?
Have older b&w speakers and bass drivers are 7 inches vs 804 d3 speakers that are 6 1/2.
the larger drivers seem to really open the sound stage, more open and less constrained. Imaging of older speakers not as good but a very enjoyable listen.
Not sure why driver sizes tend to be smaller these days unless you pay a lot more. Hear that most consumers want more compact mains so drivers are smaller. Kinda sad.
