Thanks. Yep, the idea would be I'd replace my three Okara II's for three new KEF's but I'm not sure its worth it. It's my understanding that as far as conventional speakers go, these are a pretty good model to lay on its side due to the aforementioned characteristics of it? Perhaps a Joseph Audio would be better with its infinite crossover? I know the KEF's would be a good choice too.

All this is just academic to me since I haven't auditioned many speakers in my life, but from what I've read, something with a (directional) horn tweeter crossed over high would beam, and would be the antithesis of a good choice?

If I can get an idea of what is good for a horizontal speaker on "paper", then I can narrow my search down from there, or decide to keep what I have.
