Contour 30 or 60?

[LarsT]

I am contemplating dipping my toes back in the waters of floorstanders. Historically, I haven’t had much luck. Yes, they sounded good, but, for some reason, monitors always sound better to my ears. But now that I am satisfied with my amps, I am looking to get back in the game.

Yes, Confidence 30 would be an amazing speaker, but I am hesitant to make such an investment if I can’t get the sound I’m after.

Since I am more than satisfied with my Contour 20, I am deciding between the 30 and 60. Ideally, I would go with the 60, but I am concerned about overwhelming my room, which is 16 by 14 but well treated.

Would I be giving up a lot by going with 30’s or are they just less of a good thing?
