I'm in the market for some new speakers (still using Mission 760's), and looking at the Q Acoustic 2050i. All the blurb says they need a "large" room, but what is a "large" room in hi fi terms? My room is about 7mx4m.
Thanks

Are you saying they are badly designed? Boomy bass to me is room induced. Too much bass is a speaker design / crossover problem.

I found them boxy sounding.. far from big bass anyway.. I just don't get why everybody so happy about them.. maybe I get used to more controlled bass *dirol*

It should come as no surprise to note that the UK has the smallest average room sizes in Europe and is far, far behind the likes of the USA and Australia.
You could fit about 6 average UK houses into an average Australian house.

true. most of the uk houses are ridiculously small. chimney breast, bay windows, doors and radiator all in 9 sqm.. no single uncluttered wall, there's room for small sofa, tv in the corner and probably small bookshelfs would work best on that suspended floor that makes unwanted resonanse.. not loud cause next door,behind paper thin wall there's bill and clara.. lovely elderly couple..
one of the reasons I recommend active studio monitors in such rooms.. monitors with controlled bass, low and high switches at the back that otherwise are missing in british amps.
