Yep, that all makes sense.

I'm taking a bit of a chance with the LFRs, not because I have any doubts that they will be very good at what they are designed to do, but just because I'm not sure how closely my listening preferences align with their goals.

That said, I'm going into this knowing what to expect and am apparently OK with that, so we'll see how it goes. The safe/smart thing would have been to go with M100's, but the LFRs kept calling to me.

Having Ian tell me I needed LFRs every time I stopped by didn't help either laugh

I am finding that I have less and less time for "sit in one place" listening these days so I'm hoping that "decent soundstage across a wider area" ends up being a good tradeoff against "sharpest imaging when sitting in exactly one spot".

I need to get rid of the current listening chair anyways... the big poofy arms are messing with imaging to the point where I have to perch precariously on the edge of the seat cushion for best results... so I'm guessing it should work out OK on balance.

I would not be surprised to see active M100s at some point.
