Can I turn my 2-way Bookshelf speakers 90°…?


….and not negatively I mpact audio quality?  

   
I have a spacing need to potentially turn my bookshelf speakers to be horizontal.   Does this impact audio?   These are “typical” 2-way box speakers.  
 

Thank you…

I have a small set-up in my hobby workshop, a 10' x 12' room that has a 9' ceiling. It's occupied by two work benches set in one corner to form an "L" with wall mounted cabinets over them and one seated work station per bench. Since the opposite corner holds another work bench, the only available floor space holds an 8" sub in one corner. My two Elac B6 Debut's are sitting upright on top the wall cabinets at each end of the "L" at 90° to each other. This works surprisingly well, and with a tweak of the balance, the 'sweet spot' becomes which ever seat I'm sitting in. It is possible to make the system work with the room when the room dictates how the system can be set up.
