Back to back speakers?

chico1st · 2nd May 2011, 11:46 PM

Are there any issues with putting speakers back to back? As in facing opposite directions and having the magnets close to eachother?

I was thinking there would be a 1" gap more or less.

No problem. It's actually good if you can somehow join them with a little something in between.

That is unless the pole/VC is vented through the center of the magnet. What drivers are you using?

Yes, my answer was incomplete. Thanks.

Just to clear it up for our friend, let's ask which "speaker drivers" he plans on using in his cabinets.

Best Regards,
