Floorstanding Speaker - Recommendation

Anyone try any of the following speakers? If so, please provide comments.

Revel Concerta F12
Dynaudio Focus 220
Totem Acoustic Forest
Definitive Technology Mythos STS

This would be for a 2-channel (stereo) audio system powered by the Linn Akurate 4200 (4-channel) power amp in a 12'x14' room with a cathedral ceiling.

I want full dynamic range, wide soundstage with deep / accurate / tight bass. I'm also looking for a speaker that is "easy" to place (no too picky on room placement).

I like the Totem sound, the Def Tech is a bit hot for me but was well recieved in review, the Revel has great bass...........dont you love asking what others would pick from a narrow list and the first 2 replies are of completely different speakers?
I know folks want to help but sticking to the point is helpful aswell.

Maggies may be a little to tough to place if you want 'easy'.
My 1.6s respond to just a few inches of movement. My old, mg-1s were more tolerant.

I would recommend that you audition the Totem Hawk. It sounded great in my room, which is almost same size as yours, 13x15 with cathedral ceiling. Had very nice, tight bass when placed about 18" from front wall. These were driven with McIntosh MC252 (250w/ch).
