Sweet Spot,

Another line of speakers to consider that can give you that "open" sound is Definitive Technology. Their BP line which uses front and rear drivers can give a similar open, sound like the Mirage and Ohm line of speakers. My brother-in-law owns the BP speakers with the built-in subs to each tower and likes them a lot. Like Magnepans, you need to give them some room to "breath" to perform at their best.
