Best monitor against wall


I have heard so many conflicting reports about this. Is there a monitor or narrow/smallish full range speaker of exceptional quality and sound that does not mind or even prefers to be very close to the wall behind it?

If (non-thin) full-range sound from a petite speaker is the goal, I have to second the Carolina Audio recomendation- really must be heard to be believed. The Konus Essense is a similar (but more expensive) design that has been well reviewed. They are less picky about electronics or placement than any speaker I have owned.

Spendor S3/5s also sound pretty robust for their size. Totem speakers might also work.
Soliloquy Sat-5's are meant to be against a wall. Use a pair of them with a nice sub and WOW!
Soliloquy 5.0s might do the trick for you. Also Linn Katans are great but extension to only 75hz when used as passive monitors.
I have the Soliloquy 5.0s and as they are rear ported, I think that you would want a minimum of 1-2 feet of space behind them (Of course I only have 1 foot and am probably giving something in basss response). Any one have any success with these close to the wall?
