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...

Thanks. All I am researching have met room size criteria.

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?

Wow. Like a parent questioning a child...

1. I never said there was anything wrong with the D9.2's.

2. Remorse? I enjoyed them for 5 years.Did you ever consider that I may just wish for a change/upgrade, as many others do?

3. Yes. Why would you suggest I did not?

4. Your response does not address my original question and adds nothing to the discussion.
