Installing Apogee Divas w/ribbons to the outside


The orthodox way to install the Apogee Divas is with the mid/high ribbons to the inside. I have seen photos of them installed to the outside. I think this is a way you obtain a greater distance between the higher frecuency radiators (for example in a smaller room) , and so, perhaps, getting a wider image, but I have not tried it in my system. I would like that those of you who have tried it to share that experiece and tell us how it works. Thanks.

While I have only heard the Apogee speakers once, my experience with Magnepan, another planar, MAY sort of apply.
I had my MG-1 panels in a Very small room. The sound image was coming from the upper left corner of the room. I swapped the panels L->R and everything straightened out. OH, wire phase was correct in both cases.
Bottom Line?
Doesn't hurt to experiment.
