LSi Tweeters - innie or outtie?
I have the LSi9s up front, about 8 feet apart, toed in a bit, and with the tweeters on the inside, as per the manual's recommendation. Has anyone experienced with switching the sides? Observations? I haven't tried switching them yet, but will probably give it a go this weekend.

For some reason, when I read the title to this thread, I had a picture in my head of the Vifa tweeters' nipple pointed inwards.... like a BELLYBUTTON!
LOL....
Ahhh.... I am amused easily!

It must be a phase or combing issue with the MTM alignment. You see this with the tweeters placed higher "off axis" in a number of center speakers for the same reason. You may not hear the distorted highs when placed as "outies", but it evidently was measureable.
Give it a try and let us know if it affects what you hear.HT Optoma HD25 LV on 80" DIY Screen, Anthem MRX 300 Receiver, Pioneer Elite BDP 51FD Polk CS350LS, Polk SDA1C, Polk FX300, Polk RT55, Dual EBS Adire Shiva 320watt tuned to 17hz, ICs-DIY Twisted Prs, Speaker-Raymond Cable
