Who puts their speakers right up against the back wall and why?

Mine are near the wall and one in a corner and i had a complete holographic sound in my 2 listening positions with a sound completely encompassing me and detached from the speakers locations... Why ?

Is it the magic of my speakers design ? No they are good but not the absolute best there is....

It is active acoustic controls....


Because passive room treatment does not cancel the bad topology of the room but active controls can.... I know i create my own devices to do so right now for the last one, today, also at peanuts costs.... But anyway nobody will believe that, i dont believe it myself, except when i listen to my music like i do now...And nobody can come and listen to it...

I only wrote this post to give hopes to some who dont have any money and dream about Hi-FI.... Try listening experiments and create your own devices.... My ideas are free to pick on my thread .....

In my small bedroom setup I have no choice but to have them against the wall, but I also don't have speakers that have rear ports, either.

The venerable Bose 901s.

Otherwise, room constraints often keep the speakers too close to the walls. If only we all had man/woman caves.
