How big is Your room? What is the minimum size of room for S5 in Your opinion?

My room is about 4.5 x 4.8 metres with suspended wooden floors and solid walls and they work fine here. Most people thought they would be to heavy in the bass but it is so controlled it never gets out of hand.
Very interesting. My room is only 12 feet x 19 feet, solid floor and walls - bit of a bunker. All ported speakers I've had (Wilson W/P 6; Duettes; Shasha Mk I (demo)) gave bass problems if I'm honest (standing waves) - exciting on rock but opressive on other tracks. The Magicos have none of these problems and yet give me fantastic full range bass when required. I wonder if sealed enclosures are more room friendly than ported?
