Which speakers work close to back wall?


Hello:

I have placement issues and need a speaker that works well being placed relatively close to the back wall. I know the Linn models do (such as the Ninka and even the Espek) and I know the Totem Arro does. I would like to know if there are any other models up to the $3,000 price point that I should consider. Thanks.

Placement has been a major problem for me - solved with Arros in my living room (HT), Linn Tukans (home office), and I'm waiting for a pair of Merlin TSM-Ms (on the way...) for my "office" office... (Little kids, WAF, and/or not enough room to keep speakers away from the wall). Can't comment on the Merlins yet (I'm hopeful), but can highly recommend the Tukans (despite the relatively low cost, with a subwoofer, I think the Tukans are amazingly good). The Arros sound great, and rate well on the WAF scale (replaced Vandersteens which, I was informed, were "incompatible" with the decor...) Good luck.
