Default TAD CR-1's in a Small Room

When you were young were you ever passionately in love with a girl but the maintenance required to sustain the relationship eventually wore you down so that the reasons you loved her no longer mattered? That's where I am at with my Raidho D-3's. I love the ribbon tweeter and how it presents detail. If I move my listening position just a tad or the speakers even a tiny bit, everything goes out of whack and I find myself chasing the bass, or image or soundstage around the room again. Despite what I love about them, they have to go.

I have a relatively small room - 14 feet wide, 25 feet long and 10 feet high. I consulted with Ivan who made a great recommendation to consider the TAD CR-1's. Anyone have any experience with them in a room about the size of mine? You can see from my signature the gear they would be paired with. I don't see a problem in matching. The only thing I can think of that might be an issue is that the pigtail on the TA Opus speaker cable may not be long enough to reach the binding posts with the speaker on their stands.
