Such an arrangement *can* be made to work if your speakers have
particular characteristics - such as a ribbon tweeter down one edge
(see my page on http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/ for an example), but
this doesn't work with the Quads or the Martin-Logans.

That is exactly the design of the Maggies. Also facilitates
adjustment for listening position nicely.

OTOH, the M-L
Stylos was specifically designed to function in a wall-bracket
situation. OTGH, M-L never did properly solve the problem of the
centre channel in a video context.

Maggie has a horizontal device for that, too, the CC3 but I am less
enthusiastic about that one for real high-end work.

I had a nice idea for a sub... Many UK houses have chimneys... with
suitable blocking off and a clean, it'd make a very interesting bas
cabinet...

Very true - and self-cleaning, too! :-)

Bandpass enclosure - The enclosure goes in the loft
and the bass emerges from a tube.
Just a small hole in the ceiling required.
