I have read that Audiovector QR series do well, but I had bought Martin Logans before I found out about this so no first hand knowledge. I've had no issues with my ML Motion 35 XTI speakers on a desk fairly close to a back wall.
Speakers good for close to wall placement
There are quite a few speakers I would like to purchase, but I need to be realistic. I will need to find some speakers that perform well when placed close to the rear wall. After that choice I can move on to selecting the proper integrated amp to drive them. Any suggestions on which speakers work well near the rear wall?
