ALS has it by nature, without flinging any extra treble at you. Low intermodulation is the key, I think. In any case, the effect is very real. But the tonal character of familiar recordings was sometimes odd unless one had done some work to correct it. -REG

..."Part of this may be that in my room I could not get the speakers quite as far from the sidewalls as I would have liked...One obvious limitation might be the need for sufficient distance to each sidewall, an important factor because a great deal of sound is aimed at the sidewalls. Though Carver himself declared satisfaction with what he was hearing at my place, I wished that I had another foot or two on either side. (The room I was using is fairly large in total area, 27 feet long, but not wide, a little short of 14 feet.)... but on the whole I think these speakers will give their absolute best in rooms at least 14 feet wide, preferably even wider. (Carver tells me that in future versions he intends to add a control to adjust the speaker for different room dimensions.)"
it appears that all the 4" drivers aimed sideways !
I'm a fan of tall line arrays, but coherence and uniform directivity are tops on my priority list.
I,listened to the prototype a couple,or three years ago for two weeks,, at the time time Bob was still tweaking them.When Inheard them last,,the soundstage was pretty good,, but that was about all. Just my .02
