The reason I ask is because the fiancee wants to get an armoire and my athena AS-B1's will not fit beside the TV inside of the armoire and there is no room for stands on the small wall, with the swinging armoire doors and all. So I have to decide if I want to lay the speakers on their sides and put the 50lb TV on top of them or if I want to return them and get the smaller S.5 speakers. In our small room I don't know if the smaller speakers would make that much of a difference, but I have really grown to love my B1's. I could always put the speakers on top of the armoire and try to angle them down too. But the thing is, the 30 day return policy is up wednesday, so I have to decide soon!
I wouldn't think it to be smart at all to put a TV ontop of it. I would probably either find a way to fit it in or go down to something that is going to fit in. Anything ontop of a speaker isn't great, especially a 50lb. tv which could either break the enclosure or have some other problem.
