Are you in the new home right now (the verb tense in your post indicates you are)? If so, why not set up the Scorpios to see if they'll work for you? In theory I'd agree that a monitor would be the best choice for that size room (I moved to a smaller room and did the same thing), but it's probably worth a try if you really like the Scorpios.
Small room; Audio Physic Scorpio or WB Trinity??
I need your thoughts fellow music/gear lovers. I know this is largely an exercise in self-indulgence, and I know that our cherished sound is subjective, but I would like advice/observations from some A'gon experts. We moved to a new home, and my listening room is, sadly, 11' x 11'. I doubt we will be moving for many years (if ever), and I would like to optimize this compromised space. I currently own a pristine (and very much loved) pair of Audio Physic Scorpio. Local audio pundits seem to roundly recommend that I move to a quality monitor speaker, given the Scorpio's prodigious bass and size. A very highly regarded A'gon dealer is willing to trade a pair of Wilson Benesch Trinity for my Scorpio. I have heard great things about the Trinity. Thoughts, learned peers?? My associated equipment is as follows:
BAT VK500 amplifier (with BAT PAK)
PS Audio PCA2 preamp
VPI Scout Signature tt
Sumiko Blackbird cartridge
Musical Surroundings Nova II phono pre
Cary Audio 303/300 CD player
MIT Z AC conditioner
Thanks. David
