Fake plants behind speakers a good idea?


I have 2.5 feet from the back of my floorstanders to the wall, and 3.5 to the side, I have seen some people placing silk plants behind their speaker, good idea or not
would the silk plant cause diffraction or absortion
thx

Try some real plants.The dirt acts as a bass traps.
Dont ever water as it muddies the bass.

More than one respected speaker designer has told me that large plants carefully positoned can help a rooms sound.
I don't know what type of speakers that you have, but many maggie users, utilize silk ficus trees behind their speakers for diffraction. Contrary to what beavis says, the do apparently work.
If your system is really, really good (excellent), then use fake plants and you will be pleased with how the good sound actually makes them grow!
