"Near Wall" Speakers...Towers.

[Iguana Man]

I may be moving speakers from one room to another. I'm sick of having White-Van speakers in my living room and may consider moving my B&W's out to that room.

Is anyone familiar with the B&W sound and what speakers may work better at a near wall location in an HT environment?

Clarity, Punch, Deep Bass, and Soundstage are required. All this has to come from a placement within inches of the (front stage) wall. Front ported is a must or sealed is ok too. NO back ported speakers...thank you.

Revel? DynAudio? PSB? suggestions please.

Thank you! I think most around here thought this was another drunken post on my part ( ), but honestly it wasn't. I doubted the amount of bass these could provide based on the pics, yet it seems they use the wall/reinforcement ideology of what I gather is the same as placing your sub in a corner. Interesting indeed.

My only concern off the get go is the width when used on the stands. They are 10.5" wide, but the stands would move them even further out and thus 'possibly' get the front left into my front projected screen. There is the possibility of hanging them, but I want toe in options. Hmmm. Shifting everything to the right is not something I want to do, but I'll give it more thought.

Thanks again Fivetom...
