As it happens, we're now having a discussion about the merits of Stereophile reviews, a subject in which there is considerable interest, I gather. I was, however, drawing attention to my experience with this Klipsch speaker in particular. I regard that experience as quite positive. I may try to raise the front of the speaker, as it's a bit lower than I find optimum. However, I don't detect significant off-axis roll-off. Clarity of dialogue and musical rendition are both excellent.

Regarding Stereophile - I do like to be aware of product and technology trends and for that purpose, I find it useful. I am also grateful for their recordings reviews.
