Tweeter height


I picked up a pair of Ushers that are 50" tall and was wondering what the deal is with the tweeter being so high, it's mounted at the top. I always thought the ideal tweeter height was at ear level. They sound great, but am curious about how some speakers are designed with the tweeter so high.

I've always liked monitor speakers that you can put on stands, and in turn play with the height, tweaking it until you get the best sound for your ears and room. I have ProAc's, both floor standing and monitor. The 1sc's, with a sub, edge out the floor stander, 140's. I also have a center channel 140 and have found that playing with the height via a completely adjustable height stand, has given me a better sound, once tweaked. I am currently looking for a pair of 1sc's to see what potential they have for being a center channel.
