My Plinius 9200 has substantial depth in the soundstage.
That said, as understood by most, the difference in the room dictates that to a level you would not at first expect. My old single level ranch house with a 50 ft x 40 ft living room/listening area allowed that to be at its peak. A second acreage, the system didn't sound good at all with everything in tight. My current acreage, despite smaller listening room has dimensions and construction/setup that gets pretty close to what I had in that first place.
At that old place I had a buds Rotel system brought over once and both him and I were stunned how that system sounded in a room where his speakers could be brought out further and things positioned much better for the sound. Make me believe in room as perhaps the most critical factor to top level sound.
