Im looking at buying a house, but I need to accommodate my hifi as well. The house im looking to buy will force me into placing my seat against the rear wall..

According to Audio Physics, they reckon it's the best placement as it takes a lot of the room out of the equation, they say you are to close to the rear wall for your brain to process the reflections, they also say you'll get the smoothest and deepest bass at the rear wall. Then there are others who say it's the worst placement???

Anyone sitting against a rear wall, what are your feelings regarding the positives and negatives of rear wall placement? Do you use treatment or not?
