Hi all i am considering purchasing a pair of sonus faber liuto towers.
Wall mounting rear ported speakers.
Q1 is 5 6 inch space sufficient for rear porting speakers to work fine.
Depending on the tuning of the box the effects of.
Is this the ideal placement.
My problem is that i can only position them so that the back of the speaker is only about one foot from the wall behind it.
I will place the 2 new surround speakers at ear height on both sides of the sofa.
Speaker wall mounts pair of universal side clamping bookshelf speaker mounting brackets large or small speakers 2 mounts 55 lbs capacity black mi sb37 4 7 out of 5 stars 773 28 99 28.
I have no other options.
If i had to mount speakers on the wall i would look for front ported speakers.
Not only will this help with the soundstage it will also change the relationship of the rear port to your wall by changing the angle of reflection.
And oh look that just happens to be the minimum distance to the wall recommended by genelec for their back ported speakers what a coincidence.
Rear ported speakers and wall distance.
My current rear surround speakers are mounted on the wall near the ceiling beside the sofa.
Total blockage turns the speaker into a sealed box in a box that is on the small side.
Any thoughts on this.
So now i will have 4 rear surround speakers at ear height and ceiling height.
The range of things that different things that happen to rear ported speakers when they are placed near a wall ranges from total blockage to no effect at all.
They are a rear ported speaker and come highly rated.
Any back ported speaker with a port diameter of 2 for example will work just fine placed up to a wall as long as there is 2 of space behind the port.
Even if you are using the front speakers above 80hz or so it seems like a bad idea to mount rear ported spaekers on the wall.
I will be adding 2 more speakers soon and want to expand to 7 1.
With the latest speaker mounts you can position your speakers perfectly without sacrificing style.
In a perfect world set your listening position more than 3m 9 8 feet from the wall behind the speaker regardless of the distance of the speaker to the wall assuming normal setup.
Before i start wall mounting these speakers i have few questions.
