I think I prefer the you are there presentation;my speakers presently are soundlab m2's and have the best soundstage presentation I have ever had in my home;second was the Dunlavy SCIII's that I had before the M2's.
You are there-they are here
What type of presentation do you prefer when listening to your system? Do your prefer the illusion of being somewhere listening to the performers or the performers in your room performing? Also, based on what you prefer, what speakers are you using? Hope this question makes sense.
