An excellent description.
My near field setup is located in a corner. The image that I hear goes far beyond the walls of the room in both width and depth. It is possible to control this (optimize for a particular recording) by moving my chair forward or back no more than a foot. My usual distance from ear to speaker is about 3 feet. To get this effect my system was set up to give flat response from 30 Hz to about 2000 Hz and slowly roll off to -3.5 dB at 10 Khz. Nearly all recordings have a natural tonal balance with these settings, once the volume and polarity have been set to the optimal position for the recording.
