What speaker for being close to rear wall?


I'm looking for a speaker that would excel, not just tolerate, being near the rear wall. It needs to be within 12 inches. Don't worry about cost. Also I recently tried Audio Notes so you can leave those off the suggestion list.I don't have symmetrical defined corners. :(

Thanks!

Nonoise,

Yeah, I'm really intrigued by (the clue). I'd love to see a thorough review of it one of these days.
There have been numerous threads on this in the past. If you search "north creek" (which I own and enjoy) and "guru" I expect you will get several of them. John
I have a pair of Triangle Celius ES speakers in the living room and they are front ported and sound great 14 inches (back of speaker) from the back wall. They do not really change much on pulling them out further. I have a pair of Triangle Comete monitors in the den also close to the back wall. They come in bordeaux and cognac ( rosewood and cherry) colors and are available on the used market. They are also easy to drive and are far better than their cost would suggest. See reviews.
