Did Kharma make their 3.2 FE too short?


I hardly presume to know squat about speaker design, but since placing my speakers on 6 inch wooden blocks, they have improved immeasurably: soundstage is higher, deeper, more spacious, highs more airy and imaging better than when placed flat on the floor. The reasons for doing this are mentioned in a separate thread and are irrelevant here - what I want to know from Kharma pundits is: What is the down-side and what is lost in this elevation?
Room 21 X 16 ft with 20 ft A-frame high celing; Speakers along short wall, 8 ft apart, 3 ft from walls. Were the speakers designed for smaller rooms? Will this elevation affect measured coherence and am I hearing an artefact effect? Speaker experts please respond. No doubt I have a "new" set of better speakers with the help of 6" of solid maple. Would love to know what Kharma thinks.
