I am planning a new room with a 65" plasma and an Epic 80-500. My question concerns spacing of the M80s from the rear wall. I would prefer putting them as close to the wall as possible to keep them and the VP150 from intruding into the room too far. Does anyone have real-life experience on this with M80s? Would using absorber on the wall behind the speakers (I have used OC 703 before) allow closer placement? I'm interested in good sound, but want to keep the speakers back if possible.
