A small room!
OK lots of good answers and some not so good. There are a number of key factors making speakers sound bigger:
1 - Design - many speakers that sound big have cabinets that are narrow allowing the music to flow around them. Flat faced speakers not as much in my experience.
2 - tweeter position - top - middle etc., will sound different along with a rear firing tweeter.
3 - bass drivers add to a bottom and do aid in the perception but not always
4 - Equipment - how does you amplifier impact the sound. In building amplifiers, I experienced an amp driving a pair of old AR speakers from the 70s or 80s come right out of the box. More open sounding than many high end systems completely filling the room with sound.
5 - I have heard a customer who owns both the DI speakers and also the Spatial Audio speakers. Guess which one sounds more open and room filling with depth to the soundstage?
Happy Listening.
