Why choose studio speakers over full range?


I need to learn about the pros and cons of studio speakers. I thought they were only for space challenged situations. Should they be considered when this is not the case? It is difficult to comprehend getting punchy base and mid base from the compromised surface area of small drivers. I have a large (25'x30') listening area and would like to feel percussion from moderate level listening (Rock, Motown, jazz/blues) This is a quality that I'm after in my quest to find speakers for a BAT project (see previous thread). Will a monitor choice force the use of a sub, if not, why? Thanks all!

Far from being a wimp, this HM415 speaker is capable of 138 db SPL with next to no distortion.

I don't think my house insurance would cover some of its special effects. :)
