Be sure to perform in-room demos as the rear-firing woofs of the Fidelio work best with some front-wall boundary support. For example, in my setup where the speaker plane is 8 feet out, I was forced to seek Parsifal Encores, allowing bass-pod swings to front-firing, which works stupendously well. I believe verity recommends the Fidelios positioned 2-5 feet out for proper bass weight. Up through the mids and top they're VERY room friendly, however.
