I appreciate you taking the time to help and share your knowledge.
I did a DB metering as suggested and figured I'll probably stay on the 60 range and below, although during the day 70-80 would be tolerated I don't think I would be playing that loud by myself (my ears are a bit sensitive to high volumes).
I understand the near-field speaker explanation. In my case I would be able to have the THR very close, ie on top of the table and in case of an FRFR it could seat anywhere between 3 and 5 meters away. Unfortunately I don't have a proper desk or office space to have a setup with desk monitors, otherwise that would have been my proffered option, so I have to make do with a few limitations. So I could go the near-field route, provided its a single unit, or the frfr/amp (medium to small). My only indecision right now is picking one that will sound best with the stomp.
I watch Andertons all the time and I recall them talking positively about the THR. They are usually quite fun to watch and have some nice jams to listen to.
