These are my first speaker builds, any suggestions / modifications or opinions would be welcome before I drop the drivers in. I'm pretty much going to use the fill included with the kit, as recommended. Also, with the forward facing ports, how critical will wall spacing be behind the enclosures? They will probably be going in a bedroom with limited space, and initially may be in corners a few inches away from the walls, I know it's not ideal, but how much influence will it have? Thanks for any help in advance!
