Those comments are meant for people who don't know the difference between Bose speakers and Axioms.
Here's what was stated in the next paragraph:
"However, if you’re not hearing any bass, or there’s no sense of spaciousness and depth, or something seems to be missing, some fine-tuning may be in order.
Even small adjustments
in placement can have clearly audible effects."
and it continues for another 23 paragraphs on how to set-up your home theater.
In other words Speaker Placement Matters....hmmm go figure
Some people would even argue that the sky isn't blue.

"Sound is fifty percent of the entertainment experience. Great sound can really bring out the power of high definition video. And
speaker placement is essential to experiencing the true impact of movies, music and games."
http://www.thx.com/consumer/home-entertainment/home-theater/surround-sound-speaker-set-up/So if speaker placement doesnt matter according to some then why even put surrounds in the back at all...instead lets put them up front. Obviously because their Mixed for different locations. It's true you have a lot more fudge room when you use Quadrapoles compared to Direct Radiating speakers or when you raise them higher than the Front Sound Stage.
But they still need to follow the guidelines as stated by industry professionals. And if you want the most you will follow them precisely. Surround speaker height placement is one of the most effective and easiest of all methods which is why i'm trying to educate the people who are ignorant to this Fact. Don't be a critic when all i'm trying to do is help inform people.
Now if you've got something constructive to add then please enlighten us all instead of Trolling my comments.
