Go to North Creek Music and check out the Big Kat floorstanders. These and the mini-monitor Kitty Kat are the only remaining models in George Short's "near wall specific" series and are at the top of the line.
George has considered all the design factors that compromise a speaker's performance when it's placed near the wall and dealt with each one of them. With this placement, you won't get a better soundstage than the Kitties deliver and there is no boom. George's work with crossovers is outstanding. I'm gonna sound like a shill if I go on. Do check them out.
