I've been sitting off-axis all day on the deck listening to the Force. The lack of soundstage has been really bothering me.

I've placed it 8 feet away now and I'm sitting on axis listening to Clapton unplugged. The difference in soundstage is incredible. No, it's not like dedicated speakers but my brain is no longer complaining. The tweeters are spaced far enough apart and are dispersive enough to somewhat fool me.

Pretty sweet. I could actually see this thing filling in a need for cramped quarters as a replacement for a sound bar. I'd buy this over a sound bar because I can unplug it and take it on the go.

Clapton sounds great. Very balanced. Good bass, nuanced sub-bass, very acceptable highs. Acceptable, clear mids that sound better than the M3.

Axiom nailed the mid-bass on this thing. That's a theme with all v4 compared to v2. Very satisfying.
