To get good sound you need good stands...the stands take up floor space, maybe not as much?...depends.

Floor standing or stand mounted bookshelves?
I am very close to springing for a new pair of Usher 6371s, with their X616 center. That said, I have limited space and my wife has voiced her preference for stand mounted bookshelves, as they are more diminutive and would be less imposing on the small room.
However, I pointed out to her that if we do stand mounted bookshelves, we are really going to need a subwoofer, a lot more than if we used floorstanding, and I have to agree we have very limited room for a subwoofer, I'd rather live with the floor standing.
My question though is whether a set of high end bookshelves + subwoofer can really provide the quality sound equal to a set of 2.5way floorstanding speakers like the Usher 6371s..
I will be using these speakers with my Arcam AVR-250 and a split of 50/50 for music and home theater..
Thoughts and opinions?
