New speakers-Stand mounted

I think it is time to replace my old speakers.
Thanks to my lovely wife I have got a limited area in our living room to play with. Another major issue is of course the WAF (wife acceptance factor) of the news speakers. According to her they must look even nicer then they play. She means that floor standing speakers looks so old fashion and are a waste of space so these are more or less out of the question.

So after a lot of searching and reading and a few hours of negotiating I have come up with a couple of alternatives.

Sonus Faber Olympica 1,
Sonus Faber Venere 2.0
B&W PM1
B&W 805 Diamond

So what do you think? Are these any good with my 200?
I have promised my wife to go without a sub, but if you who are the experts think that these speakers are a bit “light” on their own I might try to convince her that a sub is a must. Idea

Any other suggestions in this price range/size are welcomed.
The only ones I thing I will be able to listen to her in my home town are the PM1, maybe the 805 diamonds. Not connected to a Devialet though.

Regards
Atle


If you are worried about bass; I was very impressed with the Dynaudio C1 Mk 1 years ago. I'm waiting for a pair of second hand C1 Mkll's to arrive shortly for my 3.6m x 3.6m living room (with ajoining dining room of the same size) Once they arrive I'll be happy to let you know how deep they go. It looks like it won't be long before they are SAMed either; 94 votes and 37 for the signature which is technically the same speaker.

Cheers,

Pim
