Can this speaker be used on its side, or does the curved cabinet make that impractical?

The curve and balance of the speaker seem to be designed to also sit on its side. The speaker face is exactly perpendicular to the shelf or whatever surface it is sitting on. It can rock on its side easily but unless you are in an RV or experiencing an earthquake it should not be an issue.

Yes. The only sound opening is on the "back" of the unit and the feet are on the "bottom." Assuming you can mount it horizontally without blocking the sound port, this should be no problem.

While I love my monitor stand, I don't think it will work for you. Even though the speaker shelves are adjustable, they don't really create a corner piece. Even adjusted inward it is still 28" across the front and so would be stopped from really molding into the corner if that makes sense?

Speakers can be mounted very easily via a mounting hole provided on the back side. They can also be stood on the floor either vertical or horizontal

The cabinet is not versatile to be put on the other side, unless you don't care that the back of the cabinet sticks out past the desktop a few inches(which wont look too good). The desk was made so that the cabinet side desktop is deeper than the opposite side. Hope this helps.

The low frequencies of a subwoofer make it omni-directional, which means it can be placed anywhere in the room. However, note that if you put it in a corner, the reflection of the sound waves from two walls *may* cause sonic issues. Thanks.

I have installed the center speaker horizontally and side speakers vertically. There are adjustable twitters on the, so you can position those correctly to the center of your room. Hope that helps.

It has no angle I wouldn't recommend as in ceiling. As In wall it's great but I wouldn't recommend any non angled speaker for in ceiling. At least not for L C R you can get away with using non angled for rears.

Do not get in front of this speakers system. Place them in a 45 degree angle to get the most out of them

Yes. In omnidirectional sound. The speaker chamber is exposed on all sides, except the bottom.

Yes you can. I used the Yamaha NS-C210BL 2-way center speaker because of where my studs were located. Yamaha makes a good in-wall center speaker. It mounts vertically. NSIW960 I believe.

The center speaker can lay omits side. If you lay the other 4 speaker on there side they will point down about 15 degrees. They are awesome sounding speaker!

I believe this device needs to be positioned as close to the listeners seating level as possible to be appreciated. The front speakers should roughly be in the same plane as the listener's ears. Don't think you are likely to be satisfied with a floor location. Check the return policy. If you don't like it you may be able to return within 30 days for refund, but you also may have to pay return shipping.

No. It is a large flat piece with rounded edges. The one speaker is underneath. It is made to sit on a flat surface.

I hung mine with the curves toward the front. I mounted mine underneath my cabinet, not on the wall, so my choice was curves toward me or toward the wall. If mounting on the wall, since the back is flat, I'm sure you can mount the curves top or bottom to your preference.

Hugh, try it out under your condition and evaluate the result. The woofer is powerful; therefore, that cabinet perhaps will produce an unwanted sound of its own.

That is true. With this case on, the back cannot be resting flat on a surface if you want decent sound. You'll get the best sound if the speaker is directed toward you, but that means the screen is facing away.Another reason not to choose this one: the frame is susceptible to breaking at the charge and speaker ports (ask me how I know!).
