You'd be surprised how close to the near-field people (including me) use the big ATCs like 100s and 150s. Anything over about 4'to 5' is fine. Checkout some of the pictures here, particularly the WGBH studio, 2nd item down: http://www.atc.gb.net/news.htm or here: (esp 5th, 8th, 9th and 13th images) http://www.atc.gb.net/gallery.htm It's keeping them away from walls and floors that is the important thing. -- JezA ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JezA's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21219 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58179 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
