Wilson Alexandria X2s in small room


I'm thinking of getting a pair of Wilson Alexandria X-2s. I'm wondering how they will sound in my 13.5 x 22 x 7 foot listening room. I've talked with Wilson and they thought they'ed work. Some dealers I've talked with are not as positive, thinking they will overpower my room. My room has been acoustically treated with Auralex LNRD bass traps in all four corners. I also use diffusors and 6 Room Lens to tune my room which features a pair of Revel Salons and a pair of Revel Sub 30 subwoofers. I figure my current system has about the same radiating area as the Wilsons. A friend has Legacy Focus 20/20s which generate large amounts of bass also, and he's used them successfully in small rooms with tweeks. Will I need to use a unit like the Rives PARC to get the best from these speakers? Or will they fit in with the usual amount of setup care that my Salons took?
Any opinions or educated guesses?
Thanks,

Raquel,
As for the design of my room, I built it myself, (it was still expensive)and other then having to cope with the size of the basement, it was built with plans outlined by the Acoustic Science Corporation for their Iso-Room system. As for the equipment drivng the speakers, the equipment is 95% Levinson Reference.
Oracle, or course, sells Dali so that recommendation must be taken accordingly.
The Megaline's sound pretty darn good but not at retail price...now used price they are worth it for $15-$25K but almost $50000??? They are great but too expensive for a stack of smaller units but they sure are beautiful aswell, and they throw huge clean sound that many would be wowed by. I think it is odd that so many are saying the Wilson is too large in this room and you get a guy wanting to throw a speaker suggestion that SGR's ceiling may be too low for, infact if his room is 7ft tall the Dali is atleast 7ft and from what I saw even bigger isnt it? My neck has been fused for years so I cant move it but I know they were tall as hell when I was up close to them.

Hey Chad,

The Megalines are worth the price in comparison to the sound that comes out of them when they are set up correctly, and they are made in very small qualities and are very well built.

In Clemment's room they are almost touching the ceiling as well and the sound is spectacular. Mr. Perry is very fussy about his sound and the famous Albert Porter also owns the Dali.

A well set up pair of Megalines will easily challenge the X2, and the fact that it is a two way with only one crossover point means it is seemless and very transparent.

The Megaline's do need to be bi-amped which does increase the cost,and they need a subwoofer if you really want them to sing, but even with those caveats the speakers really are amazing and even at $50k plus $3,300-? whatever for a good or pair of subs and a second amplifier this is an absolutly world class reference grade speaker.

A line source array also works extremely well in smaller rooms based on the radiation pattern of the system and considering the price of X2 vs the Dali that might make a huge difference in price.

As I said Clemments room is small and is similar in dimension and his system is unbelievable. I know I have heard it on numerous occasions! He is currently using the Behold electronics, with a Tact room eq and the Megalines, and the system puts you in the space of live music.

I would write to Clemment and maybe he would let you hear his creation.
