> I'm actually more interested in getting a good sound image. This is the goal. The best image I've ever heard was from a pair of Bang & Olufsen Beolab 5 [0], set up in their shop (due to their acoustic lens, I suspect). I have a pair of JBL LSR305 (bought for 1% of the price of the B&O pair) [1]. They feature an "Image Control Wave Guide" inherited from a more expensive JBL line. The image can be stunning, but you have to sit in the right place.
