In Reply to: QUAD 63s edge to side walls posted by Timbo in Oz on July 21, 2017 at 03:38:30:
Side wall placement is not an issue. Yes most speakers will sound horrible this way given their dispersion pattern.
In the horizontal plane the 63 has 55 degrees of dispersion. With near field listening the speakers will be toed in to the listening position if they are wide apart. There will be no reflection problem with the side wall at least with the higher frequencies.
Even rear wall damping is not required in most cases if they are far enough from the wall. The speaker is damped internally on the rear of the panel to attenuate high frequency.
Walker understood that speakers need to work and sound good in the average domestic listening environment. The speakers were designed with this in mind. It is amazing how consistent they sound no matter the room or set-up. Lots of room treatments, etc., are not required in most cases.
