I forgot to mention, I was also concerned whether the relatively small drivers would be able to play loud. I have a fairly small listening room, about 18x18' set up diagonally, with speakers about 6-8' from ears, so midfield. I turned up the amp till it was getting definitely too loud (hearing damage level) and I could not see the driver cones move. There is a video on YouTube that shows the driver cones moving. That must be crazy sound level. So even with larger living rooms, I would not be concerned about filling the room with sound from the Sibelius.
thanks , yes i believe its art + sound in london

already got too many speakers but certainly would like to hear sibelius at some point . the fugalhorn xl was here for a while and really made an impression
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down
