Ok...newbie.....am considering encore kit....but am worried about the placement with the rear port....small room.....10x12...10 ft. ceilings....need to go very close to the wall....has anyone used these speakers with the port plugged, and the speaker an inch or 2 from the wall?...I am not a huge bass fan......my friend has some NHT Super Ones....with no port...right up against the wall...and they sound better than what I have( 20 year old front ported Sony's...from a mini stereo combo)
