Has anyone tried listening to them from the back? From the front we are listening through a sheet of steel with small holes in it. The steel sheet is the electromagnet and can't be doing the sound much good. I am experimenting with them turned around and angled back as if listening from the front. I have also reversed the speaker connections to maintain phase.
Magnepan Placement
I have just picked up a pair of used SMG's and have to say, even thought they may not be the most recent version or the top o the heap, these things are amazing! Which leads me to my question, are there any "do's and don't" regarding placement? I have read Jim Smith's "Get Better Sound" and have applied his rules of thumb regarding placement from the rear wall, etc; however, I wanted to see if there are any secrets out there? Thanks in advance!!
