Magnepan MMG for fun and enjoyment.

I own a Manley Stingray amplifier. I currently own JMR Trentes and I love them dearly. I also have a Denon home theater amplifier, about 70 watts. I had some Def Tech 7004's for the home theater. They were pretty good but I gave them to a friend. Then I tried some little Axiom M2's for the home theater. Even though the guys on the Axiom forum will tell you till the cows come home that those tweeters aren't bright..they are accurate..., well then I don't like their version of accurate. I returned those.
The Magnepans look like they are a lot of fun. And they are just a little more than the M2's and their stands. Is a 13 x 14 room big enough to let those babies sing? I'm not a bass head, I really get a kick out of good imaging, and I spend my weekend moving my speakers around in two different rooms switching back and forth between the two amps. I'm not married, so luckily I get to put them anywhere I want.
I'd appreciate the room size advice.
Thank you.

Thanks you guys. I have the Manley for listening to music in one room and the Denon for watching movies in another. I gave away a pair of Def Tech 7004's to a friend because I wasn't crazy about them and I needed another pair of speakers. I tried the Trente's for watching a few movies and I was thrilled with the clarity of the voices and the movie soundstage they produce. The bass won't shake my couch but it sounds nice. If my house was on fire, I would save the Trente's first(I don't have any children).
I wanted to try the MMG because having a different speaker design I've never heard before is exciting to me. A lot happened since I posted my question and I ordered a very efficient pair of horn speakers. I still plan on getting the MMG's but maybe in a few months.
