Going back to soundstage (I think this is the right thread :)) I wanted to mention that last night I moved a bunch of stuff (mostly other speakers) out from between the M5HP's and noticed a significant improvement in the "sharpness" and even-ness of the different sounds/instruments/voices across the soundstage.

Not necessarily any larger (everything I played was pretty conventionally mixed so sounds appeared mostly between the speakers rather than outside them) but the location of sounds was definitely more clear.

Seemed to be a bit more vertical spread between sounds, although it's still not clear how that would actually work other than higher frequency sounds appearing a bit higher physically because relatively more of the sound is coming from drivers mounted further up the front panel.

Anyways, I think I'm going to set up a reminder message to myself telling me to take all the accumulated crap out of the speaker area every month or so.
