Revel Salons in an enclosure?


In an attempt to hide my large Revel Salons, I am considering placing them behind cabinets. How much will this compromise it's sound? I know the Salons have a rear port and rear firing tweeter.

It will destroy the soundstaging -- the speakers must be well out from the back wall to soundstage properly -- and almost certainly make the bass unlistenable because of the rear port and prodigious bass capability of the speaker.

In short, it would be a usage of the speaker that was absolutely not intended by the designer.

Sell the Salons and buy a speaker that is designed to go in-wall.
