Since you’d be off axis of the ideal line of projection of the tweeter, you’d probably be hearing a sort of oddly balanced sound but nothing too weird. The time alignment will be off too so probably some phase issues too but I’d think that some nice were all so used to the crappiest floor monitor sounds imaginable ( most of the floor Monitors I’ve ever heard sounded terrible, even the most expensive ones. Engineers have a decided tendency to make them far too loud which exacerbates the problems ), you won’t be too put off by using anything as a monitor.
