Aye...that is a much better way of stating the benefit. Agreed it is about moving to v4 rather that what kind of v4. Ian was telling me that for at least a year and I was wondering why he was speaking in riddles. Then I got the M3, M5 and M100 and after hearing all three, I instantly knew what he meant.

You can buy the most inexpensive speaker in the family and you will hear the same soundstage as the M100 (I don't know about LFRs because I have never heard them). As you move up the line, the improvements are better clarity throughout the entire audible band, improved image focus, larger images, higher dynamic power (macrodynamics), greater microdynamics and increased dispersion leading to a wider soundstage.

It really is quite an amazing acoustical engineering achievement. I don't know if anyone else in the speaker world offers anything like this.
