would mounting these on top of my monitors affect the sound? ie does the surface they are placed on affect the tone like earcups do on headphones? I like to keep the underside of my monitors clean and I’ve been wanting a set of speakers that would look and sound good attached to the top of my monitors via a 3d printed vesa mount adaptor

MEZZANlNEWhat’s the little white guy between your PC tower and headphone amp? Mounting on top of if your monitors would do three things, but perhaps you will enjoy the result. Think of any flat surface as a 2D side of a horn or megaphone. For one, It would lift the speakers further away from your desk, so that horizontal plane would have less strength of effect as a boundary for sound to bounce off of and do less to reinforce the sound waves traveling directly from speaker to ear. Second, the surface of your monitor would have a slightly increased boundary effect (the speaker probably would have been close to the monitor anyway). Third, the monitor may resonate a little from having the speaker directly mounted to it. Overall, I don’t think it would make much effect, I just mention it for the perfectionists out there, you know? Each speaker is pretty light too, I answered the exact weight just a few comments prior to yours here but each is 13-14 Oz.
