They are front ported so should not excite the glass doors and their output drops like a stone below 40Hz so they are unlikely to boom. In fact Chris who I bought them off was using them in a similar size room to Oli's and they sounded just fine. If it doesn't work out then he's still got his Pioneers to fall back on and my living room fills up further with more large, unused speakers...

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Yes, and I'm very grateful mate. Will be good to be able to freely listen without the necessity of having to like them. Which you do when they are your only speakers.

    Will just add again, I really like the pioneers!!!

    All assuming I like the Ardens better than the JM Labs and that isn't a given because the JM Labs are a significant cut above your typical multi-driver floorstander. If I hadn't decided to scratch the Tannoy itch I'd be sticking with them. Their equivalent in the current Focal range cost over five grand!
