Going to demo the 3 contenders next weekend in Edinburgh your thoughts,
experiences please. Remember this is for my garage conversion 15ft x
8ft

Stand mounts.
I'll still torn about these two speakers from Dali.
I can get the IKon 2 on the wall model for £549.00 and the Menuet for
£749
The main advantage i can see for the Menuet is that it can be shelf
mounted too. (if we ever move).
Below are the specs Menuet on the left. Your views please
I don't think the subwoofer will be an immediate purchase so will Dali
Mentor Menuet be a better option ?

from the rest of the room ? Fused spur ?

Yes - a spur or ring
The garage is attached to the kitchen which feeds into the dining and
then the lounge and then the entrance hall. In here is the consumer
unit, so is what you proposed going to be an expensive and messy job.
?
Lighting and power sockets already exist in the garage.
Like the look of these
I have the Mentor 2. Before that I had the Ikon 6. Love them, maybe a
little on the bright side, but use the Iguz eq plugin to reduce the
3.500-10.000 frequency range, along with the bass management. You don´t
have to have the hearing of a 16 year old, to hear the ribbon tweeter.

Also, the ribbon provides more dispersions and a larger sweet spot.
It is the other way around. Ribbons and magnetostats tend to sharp spot
more, thats why you see many of them with a kind of mechanical
attachement to spread the sounds.

Magnepan has some wall mounts - The MMG's would probably be great for
$600 a pair

sorry I was looking at the wrong ones...
How good is your top end hearing (ie over 14k?) - if it's as good as a
16-year old, go with the Ikon and get the benefit of its ribbon
tweeter.
