A question about front-ported speakers


I want to get my speakers as close to the wall as possible. I know they really should have as much breathing room as possible, but I want to get as much room between me and my speakers.I'm looking at the Paradigm studio 40 or 60.Are front ported speakers capable,generally speaking, of being REAL tight to walls without sounding like they're underwater or something?.

I have my speakers 6" from the rear wall and they work great!
The ports are front-firing.

But- the front of the speaker is about 2 1/2 feet from the rear wall, so maybe they don't count?
