Only if you're stretched out on the carpet at an angle to the speakers so that your head is further from the tweets than the drivers.
Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.

This thread is like reading text of a phone conversation.

In reply to:
so I take it you guys are not going to get anal about speaker stands ?
Highly unlikely on this forum craig.
Speaker stands, wire brands, green hands, it doesn't matter.

Craig, I have my M22s raised about 18" above floor level, but among the experiments I tried was putting them directly on the floor and tilting them slightly back to have the tweeters pointing to ear level. I'd agree with 2x6 that they sounded fine, although I don't necessarily think that moving the tweeter back was the significant factor.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the RS150, just to confirm whether or not Curtis and I are nuts.
I also think if you're going to add another pair of speakers, the Ascend 340's really need to be part of this "bookshelf shootout".
