Genelec SAM active studio monitors for home use


https://www.genelec.com/studio-monitors/sam-coaxial-studio-monitors

Wondering if anyone has experience with Genelec SAM monitors in their home. They are meant for near field listening, but I wonder if they can fill a room if seated 8-10 feet away. These speakers have room correction and coaxial design. On paper it seem very promising. Please share any first hand experience. Not looking for opinions, but first hand demos in store or feedback from owners. 

My last post on this forum was a disaster. Giving it another try. Mentioning it just in case the same trolls strike again.

I think one of the advantages of something like the Genelec 8331 is that you can run your own target curve with the room correction software they have.

With a speaker that has uniform dispersion like the Genelecs EQ should affect the sound uniformly around the room rather than at just 1 measuring location. Whereas with speakers that have directivity issues EQ at the measurement location can mean a worse response somewhere else.
