The above two graphs show a significant frequency response degradation in the lower mid-range when mounting a speaker 8" from a surface (typical with bracket-mounted speakers). Surface reflections combine out-of-phase with the direct sound and cause cancellations.

The "Minimum Reflection" Advantage
The H-3 "Wall Mount" Speaker and the F-121C "Ceiling Mount" Speaker
minimize the out-of-phase reflections by eliminating the distance between
the enclosure and the mounting surface.
