My new dedicated HT room will be 18' wide x 25' deep x 10' high. I have been considering some used Requests for about $1800, but have an opportunity to pickup some almost brand new Purity's for about $2000. I will probably run the Motif center either way. This is 95% HT... very little critical listening, mostly movies with a few DVD concerts all along.
I want to make sure the Purity's will fill the room. They will be about 12' apart and the first row of recliners will be about 12' back.
I will have my own DIY subs... so the low end is not an issue.
In my much smaller HT room that I had previously, 11.5' wide x 20' deep x 8.5' high, I had the Ascent i's with the Motif and it was literally awesome! I loved the setup. The sound stage was huge, wide, tall... BIG! I cannot imagine buying ML's and not having that same sound as before... I would be highly disappointed.
Does anyone have the Purity's or heard them in a large size room?
What would you buy, 12 year old Requests or practically new Purity's?
Thanks!
