I've found, in my environment, it depends on the track. With the one below for example, I get a very natural 180 degree sound field in Neo or PLII. In stereo, the sound field is closer to 120 degrees with the actives at normal volumes and 140 degrees at louder volumes.

I find PLII and Neo can sound quite natural in my space because the QS10s are mounted 4 feet ahead of my MLP. When they were mounted directly opposite my ears, it was too much of an unnatural wrap-around effect.
