Dear @nyev : Each one of us room/system is way different and performs different too.
I don't read in the posts and you don't mentioned nothing about your room treatment if any.
Room treatment is critical an even the more important link in any audio system and one target in that room system is try to " tame " " perfectly the room bass system that's the frequency range that defines the overall system quality level performance. You have first than all take care on that issue.
" I should also say I only listen at moderate volumes. "
My TTs are between my subs/speakers and any one can " comes " to listen it say at 90db SPL and no one could detect any problem by the " air borne " or other trouble coming from the subs/speakers.
So, after take care on the room treatment issue go a head with what you have and put the TT in between the speakers. Rigth now you are distressing for nothing, stay calm and go a head.
Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
R.
