Any Present Magnepan 3.7i owner using them in a smaller listening space...


I am contemplating the purchase of the 3.7i's however I have a smaller listening space.  My space is approx. 10-ft in width by approx.14-ft depth (the space is open behind the listening position).  The most distance I could put the 3.7i's out from the front-wall would be about 3-ft.  If any of you 3.7i owners are working with a smaller listening space, can you offer some recommendations as to how you got your speaker placement to work ?  As I understand it, Maggies in general need to be placed out notably from the front wall to give them room to "breathe".  

Any experience or recommendations would help me in deciding to purchase or go another route.  Thanks !

10 by 14, 12 by 11, etc...Magnepan is not for small room Bros. If you pull that panel 4 ft from the front wall, you will be seated flat up against the back wall (not good at all). Abandon all your Maggie desires and move on Brosnans.
