Question on Speaker Placement


Based on the shape and content of my listening room, I have one speaker with a back wall directly behind it ( roughly 2') while the other speaker is backed by the open entrance into another room. What are the sonic implications of this arrangement? I'm limited in my ability to test alternative positions, although by widening the distance between the speaker by about 2', I can back the 2nd speaker with a wall. This would be about a 13 ' distance between the speakers. The speakers are PSB Imagine X2T. Hope this makes sense and thanks.

I recently listened to a person's system that looks like it would sound terrible.  One speaker close against a glass side wall and the other sidewall open to the room as you describe.  It sounded glorious.

So sometimes the rules are not as written in stone, although I agree there was luck involved with excellent system building. 

Just got to try it.
