Personally I found them best up close and tilted to ear height. They are not fussy with regards to room boundaries so can be placed near a wall. I've read that the larger models need more breathing space.

Interesting, I find that whilst point source speakers give great image they tend to have a smaller sweet spot than multi-driver arrangements - maybe the lack of baffle aids this here?

The TD512 speakers have arrived! They are significantly bigger than the TD508s:
The extra size makes an obvious improvement at the bottom end. I don't think I'll need to turn on my sub-woofer very often.
Initial listening and the clarity and natural sound is just wonderful. At the moment, I've got them on my existing stands. I need to get hold of some spikes before I can get them in place.
One very obvious thing about these speaker is how well they are made. Really solid and beautifully put together.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Considering the drivers are only 4 cms extra those cabs are much bigger than I expected!

I was a little surprised when the boxes arrived. It's silly really as I've seen the TD712z often enough, so I should have realised just how big they'd be.
Their black colour suits my system better than white - and my wife likes the look of them - so management approval!
The stands are very tall. They don't look that substantial, but looks are deceiving. The top and bottom plates are solid aluminium, and the central tube is full of acoustic sand - so very solid and well made. I need some cones to sit them on before I can use them in place on my wooden floor.
For now, the speakers seem to be fine on my current stands.
I'll get my Isotek system disc out over the weekend and have a play with positioning.

I use spiked stands on a wooden floor also. Try granite chopping boards underneath them to protect the floor. It's a cheap fix and makes them easy to move about when sat on the slabs.
