When I bought my RTi6's I put them on some 32'' stands (I think the're 32's) that I alresdy had and the tweeter was to high so I turned them upside down to move the tweeter down several inchs I also did it with my center channel that is also mounted to high, but I have it angeled down toward the seating position, anyway what I'am asking is there reason why you shouldn't turn speakers upside down and do I need to rethink what I've done?

    Dont see why it would hurt it...

    May even tone down the tweeter.

    Mission and Kef were doing this for years. They called it "inverted driver" or something like that.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...
