I've always liked the increased depth of the bowfonts, but like many others find the distortion to be too much to handle... I was at the LFS standing behind a bow front and thought to myself, "this is perfect, extra depth, a non linear background... that might just work!"

has anyone ever set up their bowfront to be bowback? I'd love to see pics if so.
 
hmmm..that has definite possibilities.....I like it!
 
The only downside (beside the HOB one alluded to above) I can think of is the setup distance - the edges are going to be sitting quite a distance from the wall - guess if you can put together a stand to hide all that it might look pretty neat - maybe you could set it up in a corner and you wouldnt even notice. Hmmmmm .. lol

if they got a canister filter they wouldnt have to worry about it.
