In Reply to: GR Research Paradox 1 and Axiom M22Ti (long...Jonbee, CutThroat, Tromatic) posted by smeade02@mckenna.edu on January 1, 2002 at 17:59:58:
Why are you listening to your M22Ti inverted? Are you sitting on the floor? By using them inverted on a 24 inch stands you are placing the tweeters around 27 inches off the floor. I may be wrong but I believe you get your best soundstage and imaging when the tweeters are located at or near ear level. In a normal sitting position that means around 40-42 inches. So it seems that your speakers would sound better if you were listening to them in their normal upright position. I do not own the M22 but I have listened to them at an audio store with the intent to use them for HT. They were sitting on Axiom S16 (16 inch) stands in the showroom and they sounded great with very good imaging and soundstage. They were selling for around $520 Cdn (approx 325USD). At that price they were hard to beat.Regards
