    Speakers For Close wall Use

    I never said 'Monitor Audio's Are Rubbish' And it's obvious you did not take what was said in context, & unlikely you looked at the thread properly. A Honda Fireblade does not work well in a ploughed field nor does a bicycle, a tractor is not well suited for motorway travel, that don't mean...

    Speakers For Close wall Use

    With respect did you actually read the original post I made? The whole reason of the post in the beginning was an acknowledgment that for a certainty the RX's would not work close to the wall in the new house & was looking for a speaker that would work reasonably well fairly close to a rear wall...

    Speakers For Close wall Use

    The Monitor Audio's I was referring to were the RX2's I already owned which were fine in the other house with a fair amount of space around them but IMO they were unsuitable in the smaller lounge I have now & sounded dreadful (again to me) close to a wall. The wall behind the speakers have to...

    Speakers For Close wall Use

    I ended up buying a immaculate pair of Spendor S3/5R2 off a well known auction site - I have a little more room than I originally thought, the Monitor Audio's sounded awful near the wall with bungs in or out - The Spendor's sound amazing without reservation, the setup now sounds better than I...

    Speakers For Close wall Use

    Thanks for the replies: I do realise that what I will get will be a compromise & it's quite possible that I may be able to have the speakers further out than I said on the first post which was probably a worst case scenario as I usually do get my way eventually :-) I'm pretty sure the RX's will...

    Thanks for the tips - Might wait & at least try the RX's, but if they are unsuitable now got some ideas as alternatives, been out of the hi-fi loop lately so bit out of touch - Thanks all ! :-)

    Speakers For Close wall Use

    I was thinking of the small Spendors for the future actually. A friend has the floor standing MA Bronze 6's & they are pretty close to a wall & don't produce much bass or boom so I wonder what the front ported new MA Bronze 2 stand mounts are like close to a wall? The smaller Bronze 1 is rear...

    Speakers For Close wall Use

    Moving house shortly assuming contracts exchange OK and moving from a room to have my system in that now 17 feet long & pretty deep to a smaller room about 14 x 10. The speakers I have at the moment are MA Silver RX 2’s which I have dragged well out from the wall maybe 3 feet, & they really need...
