What are the dimensions of you're listening space?what are the recommendations for room size

One room is only 14 x 9 but may try them on my main rig which is a lot larger 25 x 14What are the dimensions of you're listening space?
jeff
If you want to listen fairly loud in your big room, FHXL would be my choice. If not FH3 would be ok, but you can't push them too hard in a big room. Also depends on the driver in question too.One room is only 14 x 9 but may try them on my main rig which is a lot larger 25 x 14

Well there's only one way to find out.Sounds like the light's would be a better choice for the small room.

Girl and guitar, acoustic, smooth jazz, small jazz ensembles, vocal music - these genres can play nicely at moderate volumes with a single modestly sized wide-band driver speaker like the FH3. If you are more into rock and heavier genres, then in my experience cone area matters, and woofer support makes a difference.
o you recommend any which excel in both boxes.
FH3 - MA A7.3/P7HD/A7ms
Lite - MA 5.2/3/CHN50.Fostex FF85wk, Faital Pro 3Fx
Some of those drivers benefit from some simple tweeks.

Hey Dave,I should also mention top of the heap both price and performance wize, MAOP 7, which would be consideres an A7.3/P7HD t8rned up to 11.

Have mailed you the required specs...
Chris & i just spent the afternoon playing with REW and the miniDSP.
If you are lucky Chrios will post some graphs.
Basically the FF85wKeN in FH-Lite was close to ruler flat from 500-9Khz, with some room humps and dips below that. Top rolled gently down some dB by 20KHz.
woofer is the brown Trianguaklr columns/wedges in the back.
Bass in room at teh listening position, produced bass down quite low, into the 40s. Adding the woofer did not ad dmuch extention but boy did it bring authority.

Frustratingly, the entire batch of this afternoon’s multiple REW measurements seemed to have gang aft a-gley, and I’m not sure when another traveling road show can be arranged.
All that I can say is that the little FF85WK still sounds quite engaging, and an SDX7 per side certainly adds some heft and authority to the bottom couple of octaves.
