Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Nola vs KEF LS50

I actually use my Heresys in a stand-mounted position without the risers.
That was also the position favoured in the review in The Absolute sound:

"The somewhat “heretical” antidote was to ignore the floor riser and actually raise the speakers off the floor by about two feet so as to position the tweeter at about ear level. The end result was a much more neutral balance. Stand-mounting the Heresy, as one would do with monitor-style speakers, offered another important benefit. Eliminating the floor loading reduced the magnitude of the midbass response hump, which was responsible for plummy, muddled bass. . . ."
