Anyone here using flush mounted nearfields with succes?

According to genelec, flush mounting monitors is the best way of monitoring, also with small speakers. http://www.genelec.com/support/faq/faq19.php In theory it makes sense... But I would like to know if someone is actually getting good results mixing with properly flush mounted nearfields? When I say properly, I mean that monitors are properly decoupled from monitor wall, monitor wall is stiff and heavy (non-resonant), the cavity behind is damped with rockwool, room is properly treated (dead rear) and the most important, that speakers are designed for soffit mounting (they have shelving filters for implementing half-space). By the way, I'm not speaking about the HYPE factor of soffit mounting. I would like to know if you actually get great translation quality to other freestanding speaker which 99% of population use? thanks SF

anyone?

Aloha SF, I have my Mackie HR824's soffit mounted. So does Bryan Giles. He has posted his favorable results several times here. I am currently in process of treating my room and so cannot elaborate about having the rear wall dead....yet. What I can share is that having mixed two projects in this room without the soffit mount and currently in session with them soffit mounted, the difference is day and night. The rough mixes have been translating very well, the mix time has greatly improved, and the level of fatigue is considerably less than before. The overall productivity and enjoyment of the whole process is vastly improved and continues to get better with each phase of treatment. I am currently building a cloud unit to be hung over the mix position, and then will move on to the rear absorbers.
