Thanks all!!!
LOL Jimmy...you beat me to it.
I was actually gonna ask about that:
Is there any sonic reason to stack them upright, or is it just a personal aesthetic preference?

Since the speaker is centered, there's really no sonic difference either way. It just looks better to stack them upright

Haha...okay cool.

"Well....that's just like...your opinion, man."

Actually I put them on their sides for two reasons:
1) I'm lazy
2) I wanted to have as much contact with the floor as possible. Even if I take the wheels off, they'd still be on those rubber feet. Or are those good enough to transfer?

You don't lose floor coupling unless you raise your cabs a good couple feet off the floor. I forget the exact amount, but that's no problem to not have it on the floor. You only think it loses coupling because the mids and highs are a little closer to your ears and louder by comparison.
