LSiM702F/X up and running

These are really cool speakers. I am surprise at how much better of a job that the do for surrounds than the 70's. I guess I shouldn't be.

    Are bi/dipole really that much better for surrounds? I wonder if you are happier because you moved from new Monitors to LSiM? I have no complaints about my vintage Monitor 4's with Peerless tweeters but I'm always going "I wonder?" regarding bi/dipoles.

    @Mikey081057. I had to put them up on stands not the best placement but better than trying to nail them to the windows lol

    @Nightfall. I have to say that getting the drivers up.above the sofas is a big help but these are abetter fit and better speakers for my somewhat narrow room. I am hearing details that were lost with the towers

    @DSkip although these sound great with my multi channel setup I am still compelled to do my 2 channel listening on the Ushers! They are coming along nicely.

    One thing that is cool about having them up on stands as opposed to wall mounted is that you can rotate them to aim them to your listening position.
