Speakers on floor?


Mapleshade sells some speaker stands and seems to advocate putting small speakers on the floor on small stands (thick wood) and aiming the speakers up at an angle.

Have any of you tried this?
What was the effect?

Thanks,

I use small full range speakers in a small room. I had them up on stands to bring the sound to ear level. Then switched to floor mount on 'tilted' stands. The bass is incredible. I should mention the speakers is John Blue JB 4's.. As I write this I'm listening to the Eagles long road out of Eden album. The bass is much deeper with floor stands. For my room : 10 x 16, speakers on the floor is much better, with tighter, and more responsive bass, and a smooth mid and upper range. It make it feel like You are sitting in a club with the band right in front of you.
