Features The first thing the experienced listener is going to note upon listening to the Point One is its re markable freedom from the colorations I sum up as ''character.'' Which is to say the speaker is neither warm nor cold, yin nor yang, dry not wet.<strong>[excepted from TAS 135]</strong><Br> <Br> The most addictive qualities of the 20.1 are its even top-to-bottom tonal balance and realistic portrayal of the soundfield in which the recording was made. Not only does the acoustic space sound life like, so do the sizes and placement of instruments on the stage. And unlike most speakers, the space and performers sit at a realistic height relative to your listening position — neither lower than stage height nor beaming down on you as if suspended from the rafters. While no home sound system can truly convince you that a life-sized orchestra is laid out before you, the 20.1s come closer than most, and in this regard compete with speakers at any price.<strong>[excerpted from TAS 159]<br> <br> <Br>

I was looking for people's comments on placing the the tweeter on the inside or outside on the MG 20.1 ? My room is 12 feet across by 17 feet long with a 9 1/2 foot cathedral ceiling. I noticed that Jacob Heilbrun a longtime owner of the 20.1 's has the tweeter on the outside on his Rives Audio designed listening room. Thanks for any help/comments. My plan is to fire them longways down the room.
