I like to pull weeds.
Hey,
Tested corner placement tight in the corner on the floor and tested tight corner placement on the shelf. While sitting on the floor was VERY good, very low, very effortless bass. This is what everyone is looking for, especially me.
Up on the shelf, I lost an octave or two, just noticeable enough to make you cock your head and say, "Dang, well ain't that somethin'".
Which is exactly what ya'll had said and I figured something similar would happen, and it did. The question now is the speaker acceptable or more than acceptable on the shelf? Yes, yes it is.
As days roll into weeks and months, configurations will change, furniture will come go and change places. Having the Aristocrat up on the shelf is not a permanent solution, it's just something to play with today. I'm working on getting a pot installed into the Altec 617-8A, that will take its place here in the near future for a while. I've also got a single, all Alnico Wharfedale W70 to try.
