fully sealed might sound better in this case. Ported speakers usually need more breathing room because they're bass reflect type. I definitely recommand used 3/5A type (spendor or rogers will do) and used ATC SCM10 passive.
Best-front ported monitor speakers?
I need, unfortunatuley, to keep monitors I buy close to the rear wall. I know this will be far from ideal but the room set-up does allow for others (and allow me to stay married). Any ideas for what front-ported speakers would suffer the least... been considering Joseph Audio rm7 Spendor 2/3..Your help would be greatly appreciated.
