KEF R series. Use the port plugs for positioning close to the wall.
Speakers good for close to wall placement
There are quite a few speakers I would like to purchase, but I need to be realistic. I will need to find some speakers that perform well when placed close to the rear wall. After that choice I can move on to selecting the proper integrated amp to drive them. Any suggestions on which speakers work well near the rear wall?

For the sake of information, here's another near-wall speaker design by Troels Gravesen: 8008-CORNER System sensitivity: 92 dB/2.8V, 1 meter Troels used an 8 watt Joplin 2A3 amp with these speakers which he preferred over a First Watt J2 amp. |
Second to say Wilson Audio Duette 2's work great against a wall and that is what they were designed for. I drove them with Raven Audio Reflection MK2 tube amp in a very large room and the sound was incredible. If you are looking at Klipsch, then you should also consider Viking Acoustic. They have speakers for any budget. I have on order the Grande Voix. If you want more information on Raven let me know. Super amps, phenomenal customer service and an endless supply of vintage tubes. |
Willgolf3030. I have looked at Raven and their equipment looks really good. Another toy catching my eye is a pair of monoblocks from Amps and Sound - haven’t heard them, but they are beautiful. For speakers, I am currently interested in some from Volti Audio. Super efficient. I still have time, so I’ll probably change my mind ten times by August. |
