Bookshelf Speakers on Bookshelves?


I'm putting together a system where space is very limited and I'm wondering if anyone here has ever put bookshelf speakers on actual bookshelves as opposed to speaker stands? Would be interested in all responses and in particular any results with Sound Dynamic's 300ti's. Thanks to all.

I just put in a pair of Bohlender Graebener Z-1's in my bookcase they are the best I've had in their to date. It is supposed to be taboo to put a rear ported speaker against the wall much less in an inclosed space such as a bookcase but I think they sound great with plenty of body and fullness to the music.

Check out the Z-1's for $350. The treble is nice and airy and it is well balanced. I've read that the midrange is a tad recessed but if that's so I like it. I'm begining to think that I like a midrange that is not so detailed and "attention getting". The more speakers that go through my systems the more I like a smooth, easy going sound. The Z-1's fit the bill beautifully.

This link shows how I have the Z-1's set up.
