Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Rear speaker placement QS4, QS8

From what I've read the rear speaker placement should be on each side of the listening position, in fact I read that you were better of not having rear speakers at all then to have them behind the listener and aimed forward. I have a fireplace and window to one side and entrance hall on the other so the best place for speakers is on the back wall just behind my sectional (couch). If I'm using the QS4's or QS8's would it be a mistake to mount them on the back wall?

I think I posted this in the wrong forum. If this is a "stereo only" board then rear speaker placement probably wouldn't go here.

Don't worry... most all of us read all the forums.

But remember that this is now The Bread Forum.

charlie - to answer your question (sheesh!), those puppies are very forgiving with their placement. Waht you describe should work fine. In a picnh, you might think about creativity with stands, but hanging them where you described will be fine.
