How tall do you like your images?


Just wondering, when you listen, do you like your stereo image to be at ear level, above, below, or do you like planars thanks to having a steady image no matter if you are standing or sitting?

I am not sure what to answer to that because as mikelavigne said it is completely recording dependant...

My soundfield vary completely from one album to an another NOT ONE SOUND THE SAME... ... A jazz trio does not occupy the room   as a recorded organ in a church  do and even each recorded organ are completely different  nor a Chorus with an orchestra well recorded as The Christus of Liszt by Antal Dorati...here all the soundfield is distributed filling the room all around me...Same with Kurt Weill opera with lotte Lenya... The recording is STUNNING...

 

I have never tried planers. However I do like the stage larger and full. My speakers are a D'appolito style each containing 4 12" woofers,  2 6.5" mids and a silk dome tweeter. The stage is tall and wide. Everything in its own place. Just amazing. 

I dismiss all stereo speakers that don't sound like I have front heights, surrounds and back heights active. Many of you stereo purists crumble to dust and get washed down the gutter when the bar is set high (in spite of what you spent). 😉

(Yeah...yeah...your let down sht sounds brilliant!! Don't i know all about it....)
