Rotating a given design kills the finetuning that may have come into a given crossover design. The vendor should suggest how to position the speaker. Rotating, up-down and one more around is a gamble. You may be lucky but better is imho to use the speakers as they were designed to work. And yes, if you don´t change the hight of the position but rotate them 180° you should change the polarity. When you rotate them and move them up the wall you most likely won´t have to. Better to measure such things... -- Wombat Transporter (modded) -> RG142 -> Avantgarde Acoustic based 500VA monoblocks -> Sommer SPK240 -> self-made speakers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wombat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4113 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85319
