Sopra 2 soundstage height


Can the Sopra 2's give sufficient height to the soundstage?  Listened at a dealer and they were having problems.  Raked all the way back and vocals still sounded like they were coming from 4 feet high.  I wondered if that tilted mid driver was causing this.

Could Sopra 2 owners chime in on this?

I've enjoyed my Sopra No2's now for about 16 months now.

It did take me a while to get them "dialed in" to the room they are in.  The room had terrible low bass response, adding that "single note" to the bass line in the musical source.  Ten bass traps later, fixed that.

I did a lot to play with the positioning of the Sopra's, at first the soundstage was "good" but not "great", like I heard in the audio store.  To my surprise, positioning them so they "focused" just in front of the listening position and the soundstage is now just awesome!  I now have that "performer in the room" listening sensation.

As for the bass, I find the bass that the Sopra's have is very good, but not low enough for my tastes...so I have a pair of JL Audio F113V2 sub woofers...and the bass now sounds awesome too!
