Not really. They tend to break up when you get that close to them; you can hear the individual drivers.

Why don't you just get 6 or so audiobyte pairs and stack them up on your desk?

Two feet apart...with the listener between them...pointing right down each auditory canal.

So you're saying I should get M80s for use as my computer speakers? Seriously, is anyone here using floorstanders for nearfield listening?


Welp, I sit about 4 ft from my Advents (2-way floorstanders, 10" woofers) when using my computer. I guess that qualifies as 'nearfield', but I only occasionally use them for listening to music on my PC... it does make for a pretty immersive experience for wargaming, adventuring, and the like! \:\)

If they sold the audiobytes in sets of three you could juggle them and then you would never have to juggle in silence again!

It's so nice to have better sound -- I used to have the Gigaworks 750 7.1 set. Oy, so many wires and speakers to give so many headaches.

Need the sub soon tho...
