First off for the many lurkers out there like me I would like to say thank you to the forum I have learned a ton over the last four months which has helped me ask good questions of my dealer and plan out my project. I do have a question for which I hope I will not get stoned for asking.
I have put together our first stereo/home theater system together. It is in a large room (20x40x10) so in the back my wife was not comfortable with floor standing rears, so I picked out the DM601 3S for this (I am going to them on the top of the cabinets in the rear of the room). The cabinet guy showed up yesterday and the height of the cabinets were about 8" higher than what he originally told me. :M . My wife loves the cabinets (we have a bar with these as well as a home theater set up in the front and some custom stuff around the fireplace) this was her part of the basement project (mine was the wine room and the stereo/home theater. So the odds of me getting her to whack off 8" is low (read non existent).
My question (sorry for the long winded explanation) is if I lay the speakers down on the side so they will now fit (and tilt them down toward the listening area) is this anything to worry about (i.e. will it really mess up the sound from the back). Or because they are rear speakers (and I already have surround in the middle of the room along with the front 3 speakers). The impack is minimal?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
