I have Von Schwiekert VR 4 SR's that do well in that position with a front port. I think the VR4 JR's would also perform well. There a a few pairs on a'gon right now listing for $1,900 new in box, on up. Retail I think was $6,000. The new in box are African Hazelwood which is very attractive. I have hear the JR's and they sound wonderful with good equipment up front. I have a very large room 28X38 and needed the SR's. I am not related to any of the sellers listed.
Choices for speaker 2' from back wall
Does it have to be either sealed or front ported?
Choices up to $3,500
I have a 1992 Yamaha pro-logic receiver (65 solid watts) driving a sealed Infinity early emit tweeter model (Reference 5)from a Marantz cd player and the highly acclaimed (for its time) Toshiba 9200. They give me a pleasant sound but I know what real music reproduction can sound like after hearing Focal speakers several years ago.
I just have not pulled the trigger on replacing everything at one time. Can my receiver get good music from a modern pair of speakers?
