I don't see any problem. Years ago I had Vandy 3A's about one foot from rear wall with no problems.
Placing Lamps Behind Speakers
I have my Vandersteen 1Cs just a touch under 2 feet away from the wall. Between them there is a very low & long media shelf upon which my various audio equipment is placed, and where I store my LPs. Mounted on the wall above that is a 50" TV.
That wall has no lighting at the moment and I'd like to place a couple of lamps on that wall. Because of how the room is set up the only viable places to put the lamps are directly behind the speakers. I figure I can place torchiere style lamps there without much impact as that the thin tubular metal shaft is relatively small up until the shade around 70" off the ground

I'm not terribly fond of these types of lamps and would much prefer something like a thin paper shaded lamp that produces a more diffuse light that is lower to the ground... however I'm worried about the impact upon the sound.

What do you guys think? What will the effect of these lamps be when placed behind the speakers?
