Be careful in judging the blades. I heard them in a living room set up done by KEF people and they were good. But my friend(who designed the original Scaenas) moved them a couple of feet and without fine tuning they were an order of magnitude better, both coloration wise and image wise. There were a few sets of suddenly bigger eyes in the listeners. My friend said he could live with the Blades(he was using large Pipedreams).

It sounds as though I am sitting in the lobby or looking through the wrong end of binoculars.
Edit: Your story does not convey much confidence in the ability of the KEF people either. :)

I suspect you and I have different ideas of what we want in a sound stage. I find large planars to produce too large an image especially on individual sources which would explain why I liked the Blades and you don't.

We definitely have a different perspective of sound stage!
I've never heard any speaker - planar or otherwise - that creates an apparent image larger than that of a full symphony.
