how far off the wall


I undesrstand that a speaker should be given some room to breath, that is to pull it a couple of feet of the wall. With my kef reference fours I found this to be simple. The speakers are enclosed and so i measured the disstance from the back of the speaker to the wall behind it, and advanced it the need distance. With the Martin logan vantage should i measure from the woffer enclouser or from the electrostatic surface. thanks,cj

Duke - I am currently researching diffusion options for some planar speakers I currently have 4' from the wall (Quad 988's). There are cheap diffusor options (Auralex), but the reasonably priced ones are either limited in depth (2-3 inches) or complexity (and randomness) of form. Then there are the more expensive RPG and Auralex forms, but that will cost a bunch to cover maybe 3'x5' behind the Quads. Do you have any recommendations for diffusor options?

Thanks, Peter S.
