Can Piega P10's Be Placed Up Against The Wall?


Hello-
I have a large, difficult room (20x22x20) with no options for speaker placement. The media wall also serves as a walk-way to another room, so pulling them out is not an option. I've heard the P10's have good bass & I need a speaker that can pressurize a room. Amplification is Classe CA-401. Can I get away with putting the Piega P10's up against the wall?
Thanks

I owned the p-10 and my room is 24x30x12 cathedral. The best placement was 8 ft from back wall and 5 feet from sides. I sat 9 feet away for optimum sound. Excellent speaker but lacked the bass I was looking for. Probably to small of speaker
I currently own these speakers and a lot of what has been represented is a bunch of crap.

Just wanted to make sure I had your attention. Actually, much of what folks say is right on the money.

Personally, I would not set the speakers less than 1.5 feet from any wall, and preferably 2.5 feet for the best sound.
My placement ended up being about 26 inches from the side wall and 23 from the rear wall. They still sounded very nice even in this small a room and I got depth and imaging. However I was sitting relatively near field in this case. You can cover the Rear tweeter if you are planning on placing it close to a rear wall. I used a tube amp which was a bit light on bass and put rolled up foam bed mattress cover in the two corners of my room where the rear ported bass would have been firing. This solved the slight bass issue I'd had. Try for at least 23" from back wall.

They do better of course in a larger room : ) But I have a feeling that I could have done very well with them in a 13" x 16 " room.
