It just hit me that I have never considered the size of a particular room when looking to purchase speakers when in fact, this should be put into consideration. There is clearly no point in putting large speakers in a small room (and vice versa) if the quality of the sound produced, would be anything to go by.
The size of a particular room matters in the choice of speakers. A speaker too big for a certain space will lead to sound distortion and one that's too small, will sound washed out. In my view, it is actually what guides the purchase decision.
Hey Wayne, thank you for the links; they have provided answers to a lot of questions I had in mind. I realize that people hardly notice that it is the little things that make a big difference, in how sound is produced.
There is no need to put large speakers in a small room. You may only use a fraction of its capacity, or even compromise the quality of the sound. There is also the fact that large speakers take up a lot of space, which may not be ideal for a small room.
