Magnepan's site does not have any info on this that I could find. Does anyone know how far the MMG C center channel needs to be from the wall to run properly? It is curved, so I am wondering if it needs any real space at all...thinking it could maybe just go on a wall shelf under the TV?

Why don't you ask Magnepan by calling them?:D

He will probably get some guy in India talking to him about speakers.

I doubt that. Magnepan is a small company out of Minnesota (IIRC) and it would be pointless for them to outsource their support.

I have on occasion called the factory and once spoke to the chief engineer. The Magnepan people are pleasant and polite to deal with. Try calling!:D

I did get a hold of them today, they recommend 12"...they are very nice to deal with, I was just doing some room layout last night when I posted to see if anyone knew...

That's the most ignorant comment I've heard in a long time. Magnepan is a small company located in White Bear Lake, Minnessota. The speakers are crafted by hand. They don't even have an e-mail address. When you call them, you will likely speak to one of the guys that designed the speakers (or was part of the process).

It's the real thing! It's not a mass produced Korean product...
