.., the same way that certain small speakers in a certain large rooms will sound.Some rooms won't support the use of speakers much larger than desktop size, other rooms require something like those huge Cerwin Vegas having 10" or larger woofers. Images that seem too small can be just as comical as images that seem too big. Smaller speakers might image better than bigger ones in smaller rooms, larger speakers might sound bloated or "muddy" and may not reach their imaging potential in rooms not large enough...
When tonal characteristics seem balanced and soundstaging or imaging seems incisive and well proportioned, you'll know you have the speaker size and type that matches your room.
