• Eventually building new boxes for my Tannoys - considering putting them on the floor / low plinths and angling the baffles so that the tweeters point at ear level, Klipsch style. This would be instead of making them with vertical baffles and designing some ~200mm stands.

    Mainly for aesthetics, to reduce their height in the room. Also the non-parallel baffle and back of cabinet would probably help reduce internal reflections a wee bit. Thoughts? Listing position is pretty set for now so I’m happy to commit to an angle, can always shim them in future anyway.

    tl:dr - tweeters level with ears firing parallel to floor or below ear level firing up at ears?

  • A lot of people report the soundstage sounding like it’s round their knees with the low plinths, they definitely look cool though. I’ve never used mine like that, mine are on a platform with the top horn just below my earholes.
