Sonus Faber Amita's: Is my room big enough?

Hi,

My room is 24 feet long, 11.5 feet in width and the ceiling is 7.5 feet high.

I use a Krell 400cx power amplifier and my main sources are a Wadia 861SE CD player, a Clearaudio Ambient turntable and a Magnum Dynalab MD 108 tuner. I connect the Wadia directly to the Krell 400cx power amplifer - the Ambient and the 108 tuner are connected via a Krell KCT pre-amplifier.

I am going to audition some Sonus faber Guarneri Memento loudspeakers on Monday. This will be interesting as I have not heard Sonus Faber speakers for a few years now. Any feedback on the Guarneri's would be greatly received.

In truth I have always rather liked the look of the Sonus Faber Amati Homage or Sonus Faber Amati Homage Anniversario loudspeakers. I could not afford the Amita's new but a number of second hand pairs are now becoming available.

I suspect, based on posts I have read, my room is not large enough for the Amita's - hence the reason I am initially going to listen to the Guarneri speakers. Is anyone using the Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers in a room of similar size to mine? What are your thoughts?

I currently use Hyperion 938 speakers which I think are very good. However, my wife is not so impressed with the way they look and "for an easy life" I am considering getting some speakers which are more "pleasing to the eye" - hence the reason I am considering the Sonus Faber range. However, I do want to get loudspeakers which are better than the 938's.

Any feedback greatly apreciated.

Paul.
