I am now on the search for speakers again. I been looking at Larsen 4.3 speakers.Or should I save up a bit more and look for a pair Larsen 6 speakers? Has anybody heard them in the flesh? I like the idea that they can go right up against the wall.

I heard speakers like these and gave a nice sense of ambiance
However hear them first as imho getting the right speakers for yourself is critical

The Larsen do look interesting.
"With uniform sound radiation in all relevant directions, the perceived sound will not change in different rooms, if you sit down or stand up, not even if you go close to the loudspeaker and stand in front of it."
This would be a major plus for me. Both must be worth an audition.
My Sonus Faber work well against the wall with their front port but sound very different the moment you move from the listening position.

Plus I don't like having to have speakers halfway out in a smallish living room. |

I have heard a couple of pairs, but the model numbers are way beyond my memory, I'm afraid. Probably irrelevant though, by now as it was quite a few years ago. I have always been interested in speaker designs that diverge from the norm and remember liking the way that the sound was presented in the room.

I was at a dealer demo a few months back and heard both Audio Note and Heco Direkt sounding good near a back wall.
