NXT flat panel speaker placement

[DVDfanatico]

Ciao,

What is the best way to place NXT flat panel speakers? Should they be
placed in a bookshelf or near a wall? Most speakers sound best placed
near a wall. Also electrostatic speakers and speakers with ribbon
tweeters sound best placed far from walls. NXT flat panel speakers
LOOK similar.

The usual stock answer applies - place those NXT panels where they sound
best. Try a number of different positions.

NXT panels radiate sound in a fashion that is quite a bit different from
just about every other speaker I've heard. They tend to not localize sound
to their location.

> Most speakers sound best placed near a wall.

Not speakers that radiate sound from both their fronts and backs, which
includes some speakers that aren't 'stats or ribbons.

Agreed.

> NXT flat panel speakers LOOK similar.

NXT panels are inherently different from ribbons and 'stats because they
tend to radiate sound randomly.

Maybe you just present your own opinons, without criticizing mine.

I don't know NXT technology is all that unique, but it is chaotic.

I've got an idea - how about a knock-down bloody 7,000 post bloody shootout
haggling over the similarities and differences between chaotic and random?

Tell me Robert, how bored does one get before they try to start a war over
the difference between random and chaotic?

'Random' is a perfectly good word for the NXT. 'Chaotic' is also in the
ballpark.

Synonyms that should be avoided: promiscuously, willy-nilly,
unpredictably.

Your words are telling, Arny. He didn't try to start a war. He simply
offered a different definition. It's called a disagreement...something that
should be able to happen on usenet without becoming a "war".

No, he claimed that the situation required a "better word"

It is called unecessary criticism.

Harry, show where I criticized Robert's choice of words. Offering an
alternative word without criticism would be an example of a disagreement.
Criticism based on splitting hairs is not a simple disagreement.

Where have I heard the term 'unecessary criticism' before?

Oh. How embarrassing. It was from me.

Nevermind.
