I have been reviewing speakers for more years than I care to remember, but it is my recent experience with Epos’s excellent ES-7N that has forced me to view speaker positioning in a different way. More specifically, the way a small speaker fits into a room.
People tend to choose small speakers for one of two main reasons. They either have a small room and therefore cannot accommodate anything bigger, or, even if they do have space, they want their speakers to be unobtrusive. In such a case, the speaker will usually end up right against a wall on a stand, or sitting on a shelf.
