will monitors work in a large room?


Hey now...
i've got a 17'w x 24'deep living room and i'm in the market for new speakers.
I'm pretty much sold on the VR2's, but wondering if the VR1's w/a sub would "fill" the room sufficiantly? I have read that they throw a big soundstage. coming from Martin Logans...I think I'll like that.

still sold on the VR2's though....unless I recieve compelling reasons why I shouldn't go there.
I'd love to spend less, of course.

Green Mountain Europas...once you hear a time/phase speaker...you will never go back...and yes...they can easily fill up your room...$900 retail...
Can not comment on the VR2's, but as far as monitors in a large room, I am using Tyler Acoustics Linnbrook's powered by a Conrad Johnson CAV-50 (45 wpc tube integrated) and if I turn up the volume past around the 10:00 setting I get the "peel wallpaper" look from my wife.
Phasecorrect, would the Europas benefit by addition of a sub-woofer in this size room, and is there a consensus regarding choice of such a sub-woofer?
Nick, I would be very interested in your thoughts on the Vr2's - did you listen to other speakers?
Email me or please post here.
Thanks
