I guess they appear that way to some degree...lol. The side of the speakers you've expressed some concern with are positioned outwardly from the outer/back wall and directed towards my sofa. I sure hope that would suffice, but if you guys feel thats not adequate than advice would be welcomed. \:\)

Regards, Bill

PS: I didn't use the hardware which came with the speaker. I used the full metal wall bracket hardware and I'm glad I did. \:\)
