RE: Advice from Magnepan

Normally I avoid the topic – I settled years ago with tweets outside – I was cleaning and rearranging the equipment other day – when this thread came to mind and propelled me to revisit the subject - on first listen with inside tweets – the impression was one of the soundstage being slightly out of phase – it wasn’t of course.
Magnepan states: “To obtain correct phasing between the tweeter and bass of the MG1.6, the tweeters should be placed on the outside” – I readily heard this - continues listening convinces me that the sweet spot is a tad wider – although the images within the soundstage are softer and not as defined – another observation – when engaging the integrated tube amp the sweet spot opens up a wee bit more – razor sharp images within the soundstage is an absolute requirement in my music.
