Corner placement 45 degree, questions.

Hi, 

I want to try placing my Fortes in corners like PWK suggested however i have some questions about this.

First, is a passive radiator speaker suitable for this?  For example with the back corners about 8 inches from the rear/ side walls? Second i have good corners only at the short wall ( 18 x 15 room) so im not sure if it is best to be  45 degrees toe in or can you have them a little more open to face the opposite corner diagonally?  With some first attempts i really like them that way (!) and wonder if others with Fortes/Chorus have them this way

Thanks.

Search the forum, the topic of Forte placement has been discussed endlessly in multiple threads.

Short version, start 10ft apart and camber them in as you move them out.

How far off the wall, lots of comments on that one, if I recall correctly it's about a foot, but don't take my word.

Like any speakers, too far apart the sound falls apart.

Sometimes bass is achieved by just adding a front firing sub.
