Answers by numbers:
1. These speakers sound good even in very small rooms. I've had a pair in a small bedroom for years, and they sound great. It's also the size of the rooms at trade shows, which are less than ideal, of course, but our room sounds very good every year.
2. Our matched-directivity loudspeakers do not depend on side walls or corners like our constant directivity cornerhorns do. You will want to set them up with flanking subs, like shown in the photos below. This will not only provide greater extension, but will also smooth room modes.
3. Five watts is plenty. We have customers that run on half that much power, with good results. Again, you will want to use flanking subs for modal smoothing, and this also give greater extension. The flanking subs will have their own separate amplifier.
4. The horn is plastic. It has a round throat that exactly matches the DE250 compression driver.
