But those speaker pairs can't possibly be in the same position.




No, but near as nick it:

and, whilst the speakers might not move much, the leads are swapped back and
forth frequently while I sod around with different kit combinations.

The 'horns' image like there's no tomorrow and so do the SETs, together they
are a killer combo but the horns will still image on SS and the Tannoys (not
in those pix) image superbly well on the triodes. The OP asked if anyone
gets 'holographic' imaging - the answer's *yes*, I do!!

And before anyone starts on about reverb - the depth is pinpoint imaging
moved *back and forth, side to side &c.* - not just opened out like
'cathedral' DSP effects...!!
