How far must these be from the wall? Has anyone had a good experience placing these closer than 2' from the rear wall?

The faces of mine are slightly less than two feet from the wall and they seem to work perfectly. I can't give you a technical explanation, but the sound is great to my ears!

Rear panel of speaker to wall behind it approx 5 feet proved bestSide walls to center of spkrs, approx 4 feet each.Listening positon totally critical : am at 7 to 7.5 feet, as i move in sofa.top of spkr to ceiling about 4 feet.These numbers provide decent imaging... but as you strive for better Imaging,you lose BASS integrity... meaning, Less bass,and also, bass is off time, with panel spkr higher frequencies...soif you want IN TIME, bass and all higher frequencies, u must sit Closeror change spkr positions, etc. ..u will lose a bit of imaging.this is a Trade off never mentioned.

The further away from the wall the better it sounds....cleaner, more transparent, better bass response...mine are roughly 3 feet from the front wall (from wall to the back of the speaker)....

The top of my panels are exactly 24 inches from the back wall, and they sound great!

I guess it would depend on the bike, you don't want the peddles to scratch the wall. I have mine set at 8 1/2 inches from the wall.

The instructions say to mount them on the center of ceilings or on interior walls, lower than 4" from the ceiling. They should not be within 3 feet of a bathroom.

You could if you made them positioned at a 90 degree angle, with one flat against the wall and another next to it creating a corner. That is my plan, as I have something built into the wall behind it that I am unable to move. Just be sure if you do that, to plan for 30 inches out from the wall. And make sure of course it is secured ( L brackets), for the safety of children or jumpy pets in the home

I would not recommend unless you're sinking them into the wall. The are deeper than I would want sticking off my walls.

Should work fine just get some overkill dry wall anchors from HD or Lowes. You should be able to find a stud though. And as for how far away from the wall the hook center is it's about 5-8inches and is more of a bar than hook system that runs through the front tire.Very easy to setup and would highly recommend

Ideally You will want them 6-12" off of the ground, but if you do not have a wall anchor, that is ok too. I have them mounted on the ground. I laced them through kettle bells so they are on the ground level. They are still affective.

My desk was up against a wall. I don't think I moved it more than 2" from the wall. Doesn't take up much space between wall and where its mounted on desk. Hope this helps.

I'm traveling for the 4th, so I can't measure them. But I'd don't recall length being a problem. Mine is probably 12-16 inches from the wall, and there was still extra length.

From the wall to the back of the speaker is about 2 inches. To the front of the speaker 7 1/2 inches. You can angle the speakers so it may vary slightly. Don't know.

mine have been flush mounted in a small 12x12 spare bedroom on the back wall used for 7.2 surround sound. But I'm thinking about angling them down. my couch is directly along the back wall so the speakers are directly above the couch. I don't really get too much sound from them so I'm thinking about angling them down. Hope this helps

Oh ok. The distance could actually be customized by you. They're just flat bars mounted to the inside of the unit. You could drill the same size hole they have and move them. The size or distance your existing mount sticks out from the wall might be the only thing that might effect mounting.

I have mine 5 feet apart, it does help that they are near a wall which also reflects the light. These are very well made and can handle the elements.

yes, I would keep it about a couple of inches away from wall. I keep it about a foot away myself.

I believe its ment to hang from ceiling to be away from the wall by at least 2 feet. I would recommend more than 2 ft

I placed mine in the gap farthest from the wall for my large pans and as the pots got smaller I placed them closer to the wall. You can put them anywhere you want to. Experiment.

It really depends on what angle you point the speakers. Mine are mounted near the ceiling so I have my pointed downward at a pretty steep angle. I measured the distance and the bottom part of the speaker is about an inch away from the wall while the top is 4 inches away.
