Thanks for the suggestions. By "room friendly" I mean they minimize room interaction. I listen to a Sanyo boom box quite a bit at work. While my home rig sounds considerably better, I am also VERY aware of what I have now decided is room reflections adding echoes to the sound. So I am not sure if Totem, Coincident, Tekton (love the price), etc. minimize room reflections. That is what I am looking for.
Rodge827, the Shelby+ Kroll is an exciting read and sounds like what I am looking for. I do not understand about the DSPeaker. Are you just eq'ing the NanoMonitor1.0 or using this to better integrate the woofer? I have used a variety of Eq like Behringer, and they all did so much damage to the sound that I preferred the uneven, uneq'd FR better.
Roscoeiii, SP Tech Mini also sounds promising but the price! I would need to find a used pair where I could get my money back if I did not like them. How big is the woofer?
Also, I listen at 60-75dB and the Audiocircle reviews say they need to be played loud or they are bright and do not sound so good.
Charles1dad, I'm not sure either about crossovers, just the sales pitch I have been fed.

at least with a first order speakers there is at least one seating position that offers a level of accuracy that competing designs can't offer at any listening position.Unsound, what you say is EXACTLY what I like about 1st order. Would be nice to get that without all the room treatments.
