I could be wrong on this...but my dealer used to stock the SC-IV's. He said Dunlavy's prefer the long wall. Placement is critical with any speaker of this caliber. You might short change yourself...maybe find a better speaker/room match. Those SC-IVa's a good though...
Long wall vs, short wall
I am contemplating buying a pair of Dunlavy SC IVa speakers. My room is rather long (26 ft.) and narrow (12 ft.) and the ceiling is stepped (font half 7 ft. 3 in.. second half 8 ft. 2in.) the door is on one side wall towards the rear. There are two small windows in the rear half of the room on the other side. For all practical purposes, it would be impossible to have the speakers on the long wall. How well would these DSL speakers work firing down the length of the room? All other factors being otherwise equal would Thiel CS 6s work better in this room. Thanks.
