should get a listen. Great for a small room, have adequate bass, and can be biamped.

Look at the Pro-Ac line, which is like the more energetic and muscular version of your Spicas (which I owned a long time and loved). The stand mounted Pro-Acs still have great bass, but are really tight, and won't boom out the floor and neighbors. For instance the Studio 115 has a frequency range of 30hz to 30Khz! And yet the cabinet size is Height: 15.2" x Width: 7.6" x Depth: 9.64". They probably even work with your old Spica stands if you still have them. Good luck!

A bargain speaker at $1100 a pair BUT, they are $700 off at Audio adviser. They are small floor mounted speakers, well with tubes, have decent bass and near field listening is great...The only down side is that they take a LONG break-in.

The dimensions given would no doubt be perfect for the awesome EW Rosa. Bass will be incredible.

I bought a pair of Totem Rainmakers ($1175) and am extremely satisfied with their performance. I have a similar size space and am very satisfied with the low end at all volume levels from these speakers. They'd be worth a listen if you have a dealer nearby to demo them.

 

I also listened to the Totem Arro and they are wonderful. My conclusion was that the Rainmakers had more low end and less on the ultra high's. Both were an amazing value in my opinion.

 

Cheers

I have the Arrows and find them extremely musical and flexible in placement.  I've owned Wilson WP 6's andDynaudio C4's that didn't quite get to the essence of the music....extremely high end and expressive with tremendous low level listening excitement!!
