I have a small office in my basement and really no room to properly setup my speakers. I normally listen only through headphones. However, after being told my a few folks in my local hi-fi store that I probably never "really heard" music, I decided to take out my cheap Boston Acoustic speakers. I have to listen quite quietly as I have three kids, and I positioned the speakers as seen in the picture. I have heard these speakers many time before and always been disappointed, but in this placement the effect is incredible. Not sure if there is some kind of echo happening, but the soundstage can only be described as holographic. The vocals feel like they're floating about a foot over the computer monitor and the separation is insane. I tried another pair of speakers (even cheaper) and the effect was the same. Has anyone had experience with this? e.g. placing speakers in a similar position. I basically have the tweeters pointing directly into my ear and my arms fully outstretched touch the center of the top of the speakers. I stumbled upon some "near field" speaker placement articles but my head exploded
