Speaker Width?

+1.  Herbie's gliders are excellent.  You don't necessarily need the giant fat ones.  The regular ones work very well on wood or tile floors. 

Thanks for the tip on the gliders! I may have to give that a go, I moved them closer together and they're about 8.5-9' and I moved them out about 5" and that already made a very big difference.

And trust me I know they need to breathe but we live in a small-ish san francisco apartment, the plan is to buy a house in 2-3 years and we agreed to wait until we can find one that is also very speaker placement friendly :) 

buy the Jim Smith book - get better sound
