Default Need advice for a small room

That's the problem. Apparently, what I am looking for is a speaker
that has an off-axis response very similar to its on-axis response.


In practice that's extremely hard to do: the best you can hope for is
something that's reasonably well-behaved. Even that won't guarantee
you a good soundstage everywhere in the room, because stereo isn't
really adequate for that. A separate subwoofer is good advice,
though, because the ideal speaker placement for lower bass may not be
the same place as that for the rest if the spectrum.
