In Reply to: Speaker position? posted by csuzor on August 7, 2005 at 05:29:24:
the speaker is in that position because that is the best spot for it, after experimentation with various positions. it's actually not "behind the cabinet" - it's adjacent to it (probably looks that way because the angle tricks the eyes), and there is no obstruction of the speaker drivers.the cdm 7nt series are rear as well as front ported, and according to b&w needs to be about 1 foot away from a wall. this is certainly confirmed through trial and error as well. you lose a lot of bass if you move them away.
the cabinet is probably too close to the speaker, but ironically probably a good idea, since it minimises hard reflections from the side wall. you must remember, the rules are different for surround speakers compared to front speakers - you actually don't want reflections (unlike normal stereo speaker positioning where reflections from the back wall reinforce and expand the soundstage).
the "wooden floor" is not a problem because it is not a true timber floor, just a "simulated" one (it's actually timber veneer laid on top of a concrete slab).
