I posted this some time back, which may be relevan:

I remembered today whilst thinking on speakers that I came across an article in a hifi magazine, many years ago, the comment that for the same money “a good big speaker would always be better than a good little speaker”. So here we have I guess is the question - are floor standing speakers better than stand mounted speakers at particular price points. What do contributors think as I haven’t a clue.
