Problem with rear firing bass port




Hi guys,

I have been offer a pair of Soliloguy 6.5 used at great price. I am really worry about it's rear firing bass port. I know normally you should place from rear wall minimum of 2 feet, but my exsiting room structure don't allow this. I can only allow 1 foot from the wall at most!

Is there any solution?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Phasecorrect, a sock is an interesting idea!

Gmood1, I actually have a choice of the 6.3 & 6.5 model demo unit at less than half the price from a dealer, but I think I may just go with the 6.3 since my room is only 15' X 17' Thanks for your comment.
Hkrainman that sounds like a plan.Make sure the demo unit was manufactured after Aug of 2001.The Xovers were upgraded in the 6.3s to the same design in the 6.5s.They claim it improved imaging and tightened bass response.I have enjoyed mine and have no intentions of buying another pair of speakers for a long time.Happy Listening!
Also...u might want to contact Soliloquy directly for expertise...they might have a solution...such as plugs as one poster suggested...or maybe some damping ideas from others? Any thoughts people?
Yeap..that would be good.Call David Berman (president)and ask him . I'am sure he can help.He is normally hanging around there in the mornings and afternoons.His sister will most likely answer the phone and maybe able to help you.
