Wife trouble


Bought Def. Tech. 8040 Towers for living room for my first dive into audio world.  Because I love music, I really enjoy the sound over TV. My wife fell in love with a huge console that spans the length of LR wall and so towers will not work. 8040's are bipolar and need space to breath. What to do?

@escritorjuan that's a great looking room. The panels look good! I don't know how much they'll help the OP, as his wife has her sights set on an entertainment center that spans the whole front wall. From what I understand, it's like a credenza or sidebar.
Thanks, Todd and MCA.  My thinking was to create a pair of panels like mine that can be stored and pulled out to lean up in front of and against the entertainment center when mca7944 wants to do some listening, then put away when done.  As I recall, my panels are roughly 54" tall.

It's just a thought.   

Cheers,


Juan
It’s a good thought.. I just don’t think he’s going to be able to use his floor standers after his wife gets the console. Going on past experience, if the wife buys a big piece of furniture she loves the probability of her being ok with floor standers positioned directly in front of it is extremely close to zero.

I do like your idea of moveable panels.. I’ve been toying with that idea for my room, as I’ve a wall of glass on my left and don’t want curtains. Did you use any plans for your panels?
