I use MG10.1s for surround duty, and they are pointed directly at my ears, tweets in board. They seem to do an excellent job to me, I tried them edge on. Could not get the levels loud enough in that position. As it is they are at max volume level now, and still could use more volume to compete with the 3.6's upfront.
Besides don't a lot of people complain that dipoles are too diffuse anyway. I have used the 10.1's in stereo and compared to regular speakers or the 3.6s they are too diffuse. Anyway aren't our ears really designed for sounds that come the front and sides.Since surround channel technolgy is dedicated now, starting with Dolby Digital and not matrixed anymore. I thought most people parted ways with the THX dipole diffuse concept in general. Special seating situations not withstanding.
