That room isn't small. I use Quad 22L2s in a 11x12 room. I started with B&W 685s, but needed bigger sound. You should seriously consider floorstanders in that room.
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
I have a very small audio room, 16 ft (L) X 14ft (W) X 8 ft (H). What are my options if I want a floor standing loudspeakers? Of course price is an issue but maybe I can equate the price later on based on the performance of the speaker. I enjoy listening to almost all types of music using pass labs pre xp20 and power xa100.5 amps.
