Speaker Positioning


Should I consider floor standing speakers with a recommended (by manufacturer) minimum distance from side wall of 36 inches if my max only allows for 24? Just wondering how critical this type of guidance is...

You need to buy a pair of speakers that are appropriate for the size of your room, and room dimensions as well as getting your speakers away from all walls is very important. I have a pair of $15k speakers gathering dust because I moved to a smaller room and my speakers were to big for the room.

I think you will be fine, but speakers (all) will sound better with the recommended distance.  Rooms are rarely perfect and you can adjust other aspects to compensate.  

@gnoworyta What's wrong with the D9.2s? Are you having buyer's remorse? Did you do your due diligence before deciding on that model speaker?
