Room size suitable for which Wilsons?

My room size is 12.5' X 26' X 10' height, with the speakers on the short wall.

I've a pair of Watt/Puppy 8s on order, but was offered a great deal on MAXX2s.

Will the MAXX2s overload/kill my room acoustics? According to Cardas' ratio, I have to place the W/Ps 3.5 ft from the side wall, leaving only about 5.5ft from speaker to speaker.

I've written to Jfrech, and he's kindly advised that the MAXX2s won't be a problem, whilst another dealer said that its '100%' MAXX2s won't work. Jim Smith of Get Better Sound thinks it might be a little tight too.

Comments/advice greatly appreciated!

Getting a great deal isn't everything, could be a real expensive annoying lesson.

I believe the W/P 8's would be a better fit do to that 12.5' measurement but that being said the MAXX might just work.

Daisiu ask your self this question;

what will I do if they do not work, if you are not concerned then go for it.

Here's my speaker story, for years I was always intrigued with MBL 101E speakers and wanted a pair but do to all the mixed information I received stopped me from getting them.

Well guess what I own now, MBL 101E speakers and they are by far my favourite speakers I have ever owned and only wish I would have done it years ago.
