Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience?

We have sold hundreds of these and this hasn't really been a problem because very few of our customers critically listen while standing up.

Johnny, don't be so sensitive. 😁 I was merely pointing out that Vandersteens have the same limitations of other multi-way speakers in this particular sense.

Erik,

Not being sensitive, just from a reader standpoint clarifying its not a concern at the listing position and will perform as the measurements indicate.

((((same limitations of other multi-way speakers in this particular sense))))

 Not true Vandersteens are exclusively time and phase correct at the listening position for those who can hear it and appreciate how this offers a realism connection to the music , not a priority for everyone.

I have been using Altec 604Cs since 1978. 
I have never been unhappy enough to make a switch. 
or rather, I’ve yet to come across something that would incline me to do so, at almost any price point. 
For me, they ain’t broke and I’m not fixin’ ‘em.

Again, I was speaking specifically of listening above the tweeter axis, to make a point about how distance changes the time alignment.

I traded Rockport Atria ii’s for Tannoy Kensington GRs. Bought Autograph Minis for my bedroom and was so smitten I searched out the larger Tannoys. Listened to GRFs which were not quite to my taste, and Canterburys which were to big for my room and my wallet. (Previously had Harbeth and Focal - so you see my tastes swing a bit.)

Also swapped D’Agostino Progression integrated for Pathos InPol Heritage integrated Endgame for the present
