KEF LS 50


I don't have room for stands so I would like to hear from you how much would I loose having the LS 50s placed in a long wooden low cupboard (the speakers will be at ear level at about 40cm from the back wall. One of them will be closer to the right wall (at about 40cm) and the other will be much farther from left wall (about 3 meters). The speakers will be about 3 meters from one another. Does this placement make sense? Is it worth purchasing these speakers for such a set up, or are there other speakers that have a less critical placement.

With all studio monitors, it is best to get some type of stand and place them 2 to 3 feet from the wall. These are really incredible sounding in a small room, and rate these as one of the best monitors I heard at the recent SHOW in Newport Beach. They had them in a very small hotel room and they sounded fantastic in near field.

PS: the rigidity of this speaker requires a long time to break in. Once they bloom, one of the best speakers ever.
