Wilson Alexia - speaker placement question


I'm looking at this speaker and am trying to figure out if I'll have poor bass/midrange as I can only keep the speakers 20-23 inches from the front wall.  My room is 16 w by 21 l with 9 ft ceilings.   This is a full range speaker and I'm concerned its bass capabilities may interact poorly with any room-related sound modes.  Appreciate any  comments/guidance.

Going by the room dimension the width looks good and the ratios are not bad -

2.3 : 1.8 : 1 (2 : 1.5 : 1 evenly spaced room modes).

You have some distance from the side wall to work with.

Pick up 4 - 6 freestanding absorber panels to start - this should give you a good place to start.

Is the 20-30 inch limit going to the front of the speaker?

Also Wilson allows for some adjustment of the ports ...
