Ralf11 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Are there any speakers designed for corner placement? Or that will sound pretty good in room corners... Nearfield listening at the desktop computer... I am using some Monitor Audio BX8's I bought on sale right now. * yes, I know... Roy Allison died for my sins Link to comment
mansr Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I don't think there's a lot a that can be done in a speaker design to compensate for the horror of being placed in a corner. That said, I'd suggest avoiding models with rear-facing bass ports. Link to comment

lucretius Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 a little extra toe in, to minimize reflections from the side wall no rear ported speakers perhaps monitors that have some controls for adjustments (especially bass rolloff) pad the walls (i.e. bass traps in the corners?) mQa is dead!
