Five feet from the front wall

@bdp24  I take it you were not direct driving the Divas, it's a whole different animal if you are using an active crossover and directly driving the speaker. I don't like using subwoofers with the apogees,  I've never heard a subwoofer that has the speed of the apogees.

@invalid: I believe you meant to direct your last post to @mijostyn, not me.

I somehow never managed to hear any Apogees, perhaps because there weren't many dealers on the West Coast. My dipole planar exposure is limited to Quad, Infinity, Dayton Wright, Magnepan, RTR, Beveridge, Acoustat, Martin Logan, SoundLabs, and Eminent Technology. 

also check toe and tilt....very important with my speakers

"Front wall" =s' "Stage wall".....staging wall?

We are 'staging' speakers, after all....

...even if they end up an afront...to take an affront of.... ;)

...had to go there....😏

...toe & tilt is meaningless with omnis, BTB...
