Switching from Maggies to Acoustats in the early 80s was a thrill, but in the end not a good thing. The beaming of the Acoustat simply drove me to distraction. After ten minutes or so I was ready to scream! Never could enjoy the things since I was constantly trying to make sure my head/ears were in the 1" square sweet spot!I agree with Roger Sanders that beaming is a good thing, to a point. It does help eliminate room interaction to a great degree, depending on frequency, but it need not be as beamy as the Acoustat or Innersound to get the job done IMO.
