id like to have the measurements of your AN E stuffed into the corner. acoustically, no acoustician in the world would be crazy enough to recommend putting a speaker in the corner. SBIR and room modes and comb filtering are at their worst in the corners. if you want a flat sounding speaker, better measure your room. I can guarantee you can find a better spot. but since you believe in the advantage of corner room gain, please show a measurements at the listening position.
any room will have terrible room modes. bad bass in room is caused when you place your speaker and listening position in a room modes not, as you say, due to how solid the walls are (even though that can help). no matter how solid the walls are, one still absolutely needs to understand how bad room coloration are and treat, and place speaker accordingly. often, the same good measuring speaker placement for one speaker will be the same for another. so yes, placing all the speakers at the same spot before making comparison is by far the only way to compare two speakers. but you dont seem to understand room coloration. Harman does and why they desing there room test accordingly

seriously, you even refute the need to test speakers in the same room, at thge exact same spot, same amp, source. go tell that to Harman and JBL who designed their testing room and super advanced blind test room. while your at it, go read about blind testing and the effect of sighted testing.

I have a 6b4g dht tube amp, a class a sony ta707es, a lm3875 gainclone and a class d. thats not enough for you?
you says:
It's not fair to the manufacturer
for me to be wasting their time.

oh, but its fair that you comment about a speaker in every forum, ATC for example, that you never tried in your room and spent days playing music threw them.
right
