What speaker for being close to rear wall?

Clio09- I heard those, and I think highly of Duke. He has a new design that is made to sit right up against the wall and the drivers are at a 45 degree angle. That is exactly the type of solution I'm trying to find.

Does anyone have experience with the new JBL designs (Array, K2) and how they react to near wall placement?

Vandersteen 7,5,or Quatro Wood II
they can all work even 4 inched out from the wall
Yes much to my dis belief with their included Room compensation feature we tuned them in many rooms even on fireplace hearths sounding amazing.
Bubble Level adjust side to side then laser tilt back adjustment then room compensation and you are done.

Front wall , is the wall in front of the listener , I thought this was put to rest in years ago .

I am using a set of Joseph InWall speakers in my main system and they are working very well. I have them teamed up with an old NHT SubOne i and I find the sound very satisfying. Not quite as satisfying as my Vienna Acoustics Beethovens that are siting in storage now but very good none the less.

Cheers,

I don't have symmetrical defined corners.

AN speakers do not necessarily have to be placed in the corners. I know several folks who use their ANs (and Snells) in the middle of a long wall. You will have to play with toe in, and the placment from the back wall might need to be tweaked for each speaker to even out the sound at your listening position.

It sound like you have a less than optimal room. Welcome t the club. There are no perfect solutions (other than building yourself a more perfect room). I think that you are either going t have to accept some compramise in sound or speaker placement. Or you can try to correct for the the room acoustics digitally via a Tact or some other room correction device. That's not my cup of tea, but it's an option.
