Gallos how good are they?

Just toying with the idea of getting these speakers.
I like the sound of the mbl's and the gallos speakers were mentioned as a more affordable option.
I am spoiled with the merlins I now own for 3 or 4 years, they do most everything right, I consider them as one of the best speakers out there.
But I just heard the 116's again and I like their sound, it's the imaging thing I like. I consider the merlins in the same league just different.
One other note: my merlins will sound even better when I get a bigger room, hence the mbls would need that too and so too would the gallos. My room is about 11'x 15'.
Thanks for any input, by the way the merlins are staying, the gallos would be a second system.

I tried the Gallos 3.1s a few years back and thought they were fantastic. With the optional sub amp, they really were a great full-range speaker, great dynamics, and threw off and an enormous soundstage. As Audiofreakgeek mentioned though, the image is low. The IsoRock stands really help that though. I thought that Gallo should include them with the speakers.

Go ahead try it, you can always turn around and sell them if you don't like them.

good luck!!!!!!
