Works fine either way. Mine is in the side slot and the top slot is for the
RX33's.
Do you just need the foot or the complete shell for the BA23? I have a
bunch but the shell is a real PITA to ship. I have a H*** of a time finding
boxes for them. I even checked on having some made. About $4.50 ea. with a
100 minimum quantity.
