(The Forte III speaker was designed to sit level on the floor and not tilted back - loss of aesthetic appeal - would look like a car lifted in front with a floor jack.) Last edited by BuffaloBill; 12-18-2018 at 10:03 AM. |

I owned the original forte' for 28 years. Had them about 12' apart and sat 15' from them most of the time and the were excellent.
For a couple years I actually had them set up nearfield in an approximately 6.5' equilateral triangle. That was some of the best sound/music I have enjoyed. Talk about enveloping sound. Music and sounds all around me. The tonality/timbre and detail/resolution were stunning. In my experience the forte's do not need to be tilted back in any circumstance. Simply place them with some reinforcement from the front wall for the passive radiator and enjoy. Cheers, Scott

Are the Cornwalls designed to be placed against the front wall? I've been thinking Forte III, but we are likely moving, so will need something that can be placed against the front wall in our new living space.

Forte III and Cornwall III sonics
Cornwall’s can be placed in corners and along walls, as the name implies. The ports are in front so you get more freedom of placement, but they do need a little room to breathe. Forte III with passive radiators in back probably needs at least one foot away from the wall to sound right.
