Then I put them closer to the edge of the desk.
Not sure if this is any better.
When I said 'dreadful' I mean this:
closed in/small soundstage, more like listening to headphones. in this set up once I move away from my chair they just almost sound like a mono speaker chucked somewhere in the corner of the room. In fact, when I play the JBL Xtreme and while I am not sitting at the desk it won't sound much different to the 8030s. In other words, they won't fill the room with sound. I once had them on stands, 6 feet apart and they were totally different, good soundstage etc.
I mean, if these are meant to be heard near, they don't sound particularly good in this 'desinged for' situation.
