Hi, Kubla. Had to laugh at your post -- I owned a pair of Acoustat 2's in the mid-1980's, and remember them fondly. They can be tricky to place, but the hanging idea is a new one. You might want to read the lengthy article on the Bose 901's in the current issue of "Sensible Sound". I had a pair of them in the early 1970's and hung them from the ceiling. The "Sensible Sound" article says they are pretty good speakers........food for thought .
Corner hanging speakers - okay? Weird?
hey!
im very close to buying a pair of acoustat monitor 4 speakers. i was hoping to remove the base with the amps and leave the amps on the floor. then i'd hang the panels in the corners of the room (8 1/2 ft ceiling) keeping them 3 feet away from rear wall and 3 feet away from side wall. they would then be angled downward to form a sweet spot around 15-20 feet away to my listening area.
is this a good idea? or have i finally crossed over the line?
thanks in advance.
