Lay sonus faber on the side?


I have a set of olympia 3’s that I enjoy. We are remodeling and would like to put them in some built in cabinets, on their side. I know they weren’t designed for that but will it hurt them?  Thanks for any advice/suggestions and thoughts!

Sell them and replace them with something better suited to your new use case.  If you are having built-in cabinets constructed, get speakers that will perform properly in that context.  MoFi Pointsource or KEF, Fyne, or Tannoy all make “coincident” drivers that radiate the same polar power regardless of orientation.  Without a floor plan and cabinet drawing, that’s the best I can do.  One thing’s for sure…laying Olympica IIIs on their sides is lunacy.
