    Use them upside down. Won't hurt.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    You can compensate by standing on your head. It's a common technique.

    When they filmed that Lionel Ritichie 'Dancing On The Ceiling' video they had to turn the playback monitors upside down because otherwise Lionel couldn't hear what he was supposed to be dancing to properly.

    Probably.

    I mentioned a couple of days ago that moves might be afoot in regards to the hifi system in the house, well we moved a few things around today, and the area that was our home cinema room is now my music room.

    It’s not ideal size wise and after buying the Berkeleys I’m now thinking they aren’t going to like being in a room that’s 2.5m wide by 6m long ( it’s our old built in garage that we knocked through into from the main living area ) so once you get past the 6m it’s just opens up into the living room.

    I’ll be sitting approx 4m from the speakers, to be honest I’ll be disappointed if they sound crap as I lusted after decent large driver for years, I’ll just have to wait on the drivers returning from Lockwood Audio to find out :nerves:

    Here’s how they fit into the space.

    You could be OK Mike. Tannoys are funny things. You'd think corner placements wouldn't work too well, but they often do. My nearly as large Cheviots are in corners in a small room and work just fine.
