Hi all,

I'm close to buying the M3ti bookshelf speakers. One thing I'm trying to determine before I purchase is where I will place them. It's a small room so I may not have much distance between the speakers and the wall. I estimate approximately 9 inches, 10 tops. Is this enough to avoid a degredation in performance? How much room is optimal? I've read that having rear port speakers too close to a wall is bad, and if I'm not mistaken these Axioms are rear port speakers. This is really my only concern at this time.

These speakers will be hooked up to a Denon microsystem in a small office type of room. Music played will be hard rock and I do like to turn the volume up just a bit!

Thanks.
