Which speaker has the biggest sound stage?

Marty,
Not only do we forgive you, (the headline reads as if it's a forum on soundstage) I personally agree with your comment 100%.
MBL's are the Soundstage Champs...

Good listening,
Larry

Lrsky , saying Elizabeth was "WRONG" was quite a strong statement. It might have been better just to say : in my 15 years experience this was never the case. And of course a second person had this experience. I enjoy reading your posts.

Sounlab ESL speakers have a very large stage and sound quite live and awesome.

Wall of natural sound that is so wondeful.

Mrdecibel...you are absolutely right.
I thought that the subsequent explanation would ameliorate the harsh sound of that. Sorry.
In my approximately 1/6th of a Century's experience with Magnepans, I found zero instances of failure of the glue which attaches the Mylar and coils...this does not preclude the possibility of this happening.
Elizabeth states, as if categorically, 'You will have problems'...in her post.
My counter to that is...it's very, very unlikely based on my years of experience.

I enjoy reading your posts too, Mrdecibel.

Good listening,
Larry

Now then, even a modest floor standing dynamic speaker can have its soundstage perceptually raised and expanded by placement. One can elevate it through placing it on a pedistal, can attain a higher ceiling on the soundstage by tilting it back slightly and adjust the width through avoidance of toe in.

All of these adjustments can add substantially to the sense of scale, however they also might involve compromises in terms of perofrmance, such as moving the M/T drivers away from ear level or losing some floor reinforcement of the bass.

If I were limited to small floorstanding speakers I'd be trying such things to see what the effect would be.
