Simultaneously, you mean with a 10e on the left ear and an Apogee on the right ear? Or were you thinking that perhaps I meant when Sanders and Apogee shared the same room at one of the audio shows? :) , No Dr., I was hoping to hear from someone that owns or owned an Upgraded Apogee , the current ones, available today from Graz in Australia, or Rich Murray of True Sound Works, or Bill Thalmann of Music Technology. You see, the Apogee's are not extinct. I thought it likely that perhaps a current Apogee owner may have been intrigued to seek out and listen to Roger Sanders 10e's. Both have received rave reviews, but usually, the same person has not lived with both, or at least given both a fair audition. So I was curious to know, is the sweet spot of the Sanders really as small as some say, not a spot but a dot, or is that an exaggeration , and when coming out of the spot, is it any worse than coming out of any other speakers true sweet spot? Do the mid high frequencies drop like a stone and db levels fall. And how might an Apogee do by comparison. And similarly with speed, coherence, bass extension , dynamics, image height and soundstage depth. From my own experience with Apogees , I know that wth the right equipment and room set up they are stellar performers even before the new upgrades are made. So, I am bi polar curious to know how the Sanders 10e compare. I do thank you for your reply Dr. and would ask if you could, when you have time, provide a more detailed description of your "very narrow sweet spot" diagnosis. Just what did you find happening outside that spot and around the room.
