Default Speaker Positioning?
Hey guys, I just wanted to know what are the disadvantages of placing front bookshelf speakers sideways since they are to tall to put then in my wall unit.

Thank you!

also, if it's in a wall unit you may have issues with boundary compensation.

If you are talking about the ones in my gallery, I'm taking them out. I just bought a pair of sony ss-b3000, not high end but in my budget... Sorry, i didn't give all the details.
