Who puts speakers against a wall? People who live in real houses and live real lives! Three cheers for Larsen. Have you heard them? They are designed to put out a quarter hemisphere of sound. I heard them first at CES a few years ago. Walking by the open door of the hotel room, they sounded wonderful. If I placed speakers "three feet from the side walls and at least 30 inches from the back wall," I couldn't get to my front door. Speakers have to live with us, not us with them. You can hang oriental rugs, curtains, your wardrobe on the wall behind the speakers. Space them an inch off the wall. It's nice to have a dedicated listening room, but some of us can't afford it. Keep listening!
