Who puts their speakers right up against the back wall and why?

Boston Acoustics have made some speakers designed to be placed against the wall through the years. We had a pair in a fairly small room (years ago) and they were quite enjoyable.

As I recall there have been Linn speakers that were supposed to be used against a wall 

For sure the Ohm Walsh speakers a must against the wall

Mine are near the wall and one in a corner and i had a complete holographic sound in my 2 listening positions with a sound completely encompassing me and detached from the speakers locations... Why ?

Is it the magic of my speakers design ? No they are good but not the absolute best there is....

It is active acoustic controls....


Because passive room treatment does not cancel the bad topology of the room but active controls can.... I know i create my own devices to do so right now for the last one, today, also at peanuts costs.... But anyway nobody will believe that, i dont believe it myself, except when i listen to my music like i do now...And nobody can come and listen to it...

I only wrote this post to give hopes to some who dont have any money and dream about Hi-FI.... Try listening experiments and create your own devices.... My ideas are free to pick on my thread .....
