OR the new Gallo Ref's.these are spkrs with encloures that sound like the enclosure aren't NOISY ie without enclosures.
And a sphere IME will image as well if not better than ELS as a class.
approaching an ideal source, waves are launched almost as set down by the signal not futzed with by straight edges.
I'd mount them with the main pr well above the other two in a 3 -stack, where thsy sound best, other two should be close to the floor.
NB they probably do need more side wall and ceiling treatment than ELS -
