Semantics aside, the point of Jim Salk's article (and he is a knowledgeable speaker designer) was that narrow baffle/wide dispersion floorstanders can image every bit as well as small standmount speakers. This seems rather obvious, but raises another question: can wide-baffle speakers like the big Magicos and Focals also image well? Though perhaps only in a narrower listener "sweet spot?" What design factors besides baffle width contribute to good imaging?
-----------------------
I can think of one wide baffle speaker that images very well and produces the best soundstage I've ever heard: The JBL Everest II.
They're so wide that they house two 15" transducers side-by-side. Of coarse, these are horn loaded systems for all the mid, high and ultra high frequencies.
