I've tried it and it sounds just fine for movies but the soundstage isn't great for 2-channel music. Basically, the imaging falls apart. I haven't tried it with multi-channel though. It may sound good.

Basicaly what you are doing is placing the spekaer out of axis, not a good idea IMO...
BTW today I received the 5 inches spikes, let's see how they will sound after elevating them...
No doubt that getting older is madatory, but to mature still remains optional...Join the M80's team!

Even in that situation, I think you would be better to have them aiming straight.

My comments above weren't aimed at toe-out. They were aimed at the relative distances of speakers to listener and speaker separation. I agree with others - don't toe them out.

Toeing them out will result in a big loss of the upper frequencies. I agree with the others; don't toe them out.

I know. I just happened to re-read the OP's question and thought I should clarify my post.

no problem, I hate forums as it is hard to know if someone is replying to you, unless you use the quote feature.

...I hate forums as it is hard to know if someone is replying to you... Particularly when they are constantly interupted by butt-frenchers and the like.
