Speakers close to wall suggestions - largish room

There are triangles and triangles. An equilateral one is okay if you like a narrow reception area but an isosceles with two longer sides increases the sound-stage/imaging etc. considetrably.

This is not my experience, of both scenarios.

Another angle on the ELAC AS61-https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/elac-adante-as-61-speaker-review.11507/

Had a pair of NS1000s here last week, fine speakers if upgraded.
Good in both formats to my ears...

That review and it’s comments always makes me chuckle, as do most ASR reviews.
Suggest anyone who can actually hears them.
Trust your ears, not reviews.

Lots of good suggestions on the thread- thank you.

It seems that the best solutions for close to walls are wide baffles but narrow in depth?

Hadn't ever really considered klipsh or Tannoy before but the thread has definitely got me interested.

What I'll likely do is hold on to my Harbeths for now, been really enjoying them recently, then try them in the new position. I was thinking about getting a wiim pro plus which has some room eq, so can give that a shot too. If that doesn't work will see what's available re wider baffled speakers, there is also the Neat Xplorers, and I do like Neat so that would possibly be a front runner too.

if you are ever in brum come and hear the eatons which are almost the same size as the shl5plus but narrower in depth perhaps and wider
near walls too

Thanks that's appreciated. Unfortunately though, haven't been down there for years

Has anyone listened to the Klipsch heritage heresy iv ? Seem to be good value and work close to a wall... mostly positive reviews and still current.

 

[hifinutt]

not quite the heritage but of course these are designed for the wall and corner , hence the name
lovely 2 year old pair just come up

For Sale 😋 Klipsch Cornwall 4's Walnut veneer

So you lucky people, the time has come for me to move on, with some regret, my Klipsch Cornwall Fours. The fours are the latest in the Cornwall line with better quality internal wiring and parts. I purchased these brand new from Icon Audio just over 2 years ago. IMHO a fantastic all round...
