I have a small bedroom. 10x8 maybe. I have a bed, tv and wierd closet in room.
I agree that you can't get the best out of speakers in a room like this but I will say if you get a good speaker that has the ability to play well at low volumes you can get a great sound and minimize the rooms effect.
I started out with an entry level System Audio 505 ($400-600). Once broken in they did sound good and provided some image about 1 foot from back and side walls.
I reccently upgrade to System Audio Mantra 10 (1200-1300 in europe more in us :(. While I can't play them really loud on bass heavy music because the room comes into play. At lower levels they sound amazing. The music dances around the room.
I think you will notice a diffrence in $1200 speaker in a small room. Just make sure it is a speaker that can preform at lower volumes. You could also treat the room but I thinks that is a little silly if its your bedroom and not a single use listening room.
