Fairly large, 20hz bass, and less-than...1 ohm load....a real amp eater. (While I do own 2 pair of Apogees...I don't plan on ever owning these). Dave

As far as placement goes, I've been lucky, the speakers I've owned have been pretty easy to place, which is the reason I picked them, not having a dedicated listening room.

M-L CLS speakers... Luckily it was the dealers misfortune and not anyone who owned it! ;-)
