I'm about to buy a pair of M60v2s for my new home. I, of course, would like to just set them on the living room floor, but as part of the Wife Appeasement Factor, have agreed to put then into the wall cabinets. My plan was to set them in cabinets without their own floor, so that they were actually set on the real floor, with speaker cloth covering the front (and when I really wanted to listen, open the cabinet doors and pull the speakers out!).
As it turns out, this is more complicated than I thought. It is not just the cabinet, but the kick plate below that has to have at least 15" interior space to accommodate these speakers. I don't have that much room; I only have a total of 15". This means putting the speakers in the cabinet--up on the cabinet floor, which is a couple of inches off the real floor. How much of a problem is this? Am I just going to be vibrating that whole wall of cabinets (and the bookshelves above)? Any suggestions?
