I use the same method as you (SgreenP) but instead of using a laser pen designed with very little tolerance, I use a laser level (shaped like a carpenter's level) designed with a higher degree of tolerance. You can also place the laser level on the speaker sides to confirm equal toe in, or align it to any straight angle and/or surface.
If you are concerned about speaker alignment within fractions of a millimeter, then why use an instrument (pen laser) that is not designed for such accuracy???

Not There....I care not about the tolerance. All I care about is that the laser dot from both speakers lies on top of each other. If the laser is off left to right, the same beam is focused from both speakers which nullify any error. If you use this method and compare it to any other method, you will find that this is the most accurate. It will give extremely stable center and off center images, it will allow greater depth, air, etc. (that is, if your speakers and ancillary gear are capable of it) If you care to use your own method...so be it.
You simplly don't get it. A pen laser is not a mesuring or a levelling device...it's a pointer. Put your laser pen on a flat surface and rotate the barrell and watch the little red dot move up and down due to either a non perfectly round barrell or a mis aligned laser assembly. Once you remove the pen laser, it's exact position cnnot be dupicated. A torperdo laser is designed for repeatable and accurate measurements.
Not there yet. You do it your way....
I bought the B652's a few years ago when the hype first hit. You get what you pay for. They're worth every penny, but not one penny more. They are handsome, though.
