Speaker , position ? Horizontal

[KcMeGa007]

Hi, again i'm a newbie here
I'm just curious about placing my bookshelf Horizontal way, ( I have a Pair of Kef Q350 ) that i want to place them Horizontal , would it effect the sound quality and while doing a calibration test be different or NOT Sound as it should be. Because, as of right now, i haven't set them up yet,,, currently still waiting for my new Yamaha RX A8A Receiver , to arrive for pick up, just curious if i put or place the speaker Horizontal or back to Vertical way, would make this ( Kef Q350 ) any different , do any of you here have the Q350 , set as Horizontal ,
Thank you !

With Q350...
Not really a problem... If the 3-way BMR can be tipped on it's side with the tweeter rotated... your 2-way concentric driver should work just fine.
If you were to deep dive into it, you may well find some diffraction issues, but as a point source, it would be minimal.
Give it a shot. Measure it if you can, both ways.
