I ended up with a pair of RP5000's during Covid for about the same price as RPM600's. I figured, no need to buy or deal with stands and they have a similar sound. I paired with the $1K Stereophile recommended SVS sb3000 sub I already had. I used the 5000's to replace some higher end Infinity's (also Stereophile recommended), as I was looking for a more forward live sound. Total speaker cost for all was about $1700 in spring 2021 dollars.
I think this combo in my 12 x 12 x 10 foot high ceiling room with 1 door is hard to beat. Sounds great! I drool over way more expensive Klipches, and can afford to have (and have fond memories of) Cornwalls. I just don't have the room for them to sing.
Sooo, If you have a small room and/or budget - some RP's and a decent sub will keep you smiling - at least for a while!
