Re: "so damn close minded"

To be fair, the idea sounds like shear lunacy. It violates so many principals that it has to sound like crud. That's precisely what I thought I was going to hear when I tried it (had read about it numerous times and just chuckled).

It sounds quite different, but the only tonal characteristic I could lay on it was a slight decrease in midrange forwardness - a good thing with my MMGs. The amazing thing was the soundstage - it just sounded more like live music. Ultimately, however, this arrangement is unworkable for me because mine are in a system that doubles as a home theater (the space between the speakers needs to be empty).

BTW I owned a pair of Bose 901s for about 2 weeks in the early '80s. I could never get satisfying sound out of them - tried dozens of placements to no avail. They had pretty awesome midrange though.
