It seems the midrange speakers are symmetrical, so would not be negatively affected by swapping orientation.

I was enjoying our fireplace and some music with my wife. She sat in the sweet spot I usually take when I’m listening alone, so I sat to the side. As I shifted I noticed a slight change in tone, with tells me there’s some directivity in my placement.

I plan to flip one of the panels to make the tweeters closer to the center to perhaps reduce any aide to side tone shifts.

I was thinking about experimenting with toe in, but I decided I prefer the look when they’re forward facing. I chose B&O so I didn’t have to worry about such audiophile things and to just enjoy the music. My limit is to flip one panel.Big Smile
