Off Axis Speakers, Design Type? Mfgs?

Happy Early New Year All,

I tried search, but it's still down.

I saw a comment below by Ivan about Joseph Audio ($$$!) being a good choice for off axis listening. What types of speaker designs present a good choice for off axis listening, which ones to avoid at all costs? Any other specific manufacturers that anyone would recommend for this specific problem?

I'm coming to grips with the fact that I'll not have a dedicated room again any time soon, and the living room just doesn't present many opportunities for ideal listening positions. Not that I'm ready to rush out and buy anything new, but I'm curious for anyone's experience in setting something up that gives the most performance for a less than ideal location. I could locate them away from walls a bit, and I could get proper distance between, but the chair just wouldn't be between the L & R speakers most of the time. I could move the chair when the girls are away for a while, but certainly not every day.
