The air would be very thin, and the speakers would be moving far less mass than the same speakers at sea level. But, it should affect all speakers equally? But perhaps, the closer to sea level the easier it is to make extended bass?Quote:

At some height you begin to have an early ceiling reflection, flip your speakers upside down and place them against the ceiling, and you wind up with the same reflection it would have on the floor. If you could leave the speakers on the floor, and stand on the ceiling, would it be exactly the same?

I can only manage 5' 2" with the Maggies :doh:
Mine are 34.5" (88cm) wide and 30.5" (77.5cm) tall, and positioned as intended: on the floor.
Your new stands could change this! ;)Quote:

My current open baffles stand 4' 9" tall but are dwarfed by my previous Hedlund Horns which stood 6' 7" tall.
I have a bedroom full of speakers on the first floor :)
Ah that's where all the 2nd hand speakers have gone :ner:
