Hello Martin. I've always had big speakers as my listening room is rather large. I've just changed to smaller ProAc speakers on sturdy heavy stands and added two 15" sub-woofers. One on each sides. The sound is pretty big and it will fill the room quite easily. I think the only draw backs will be the SPL your small speakers will deliver. If your trying to have a rather large and loud party, this set up will probably not do as usually, the power is limited with smaller woofers. The good part is that the small footprint your bookshelf speakers will have, is going to give you a better musical stage definition.
The previous speakers where OBs. The thing I miss the most is how quickly they reacted to the music. But I do not miss the added space they took in my listening room (living room). I will have to put them up for sale as I rather like the added space that I get with the small speakers. You can't win them all.
