I understand what you mean about the imaging. The A7 images, but it is a different presentation than with typical "high end" direct radiator speakers. The more you listen, the altecs image more like live music, which is never the same presentation as I get from my direct radiator type speakers. They (direct radiator) throw a large spacious image, and is enjoyable and all with lots of detail, but live music really doesn't sound like nor "image" like that. The altecs have a truely live sound presentation. I know there have been a few other altec users here all along, but it sure is nice to see so many other new A7 converts out there in this forum. Con grats Akhilesh on your A7 aquisition, sad to hear you couldn't use the cabs, they are huge! I have often wondered how the Altec drivers would perform in 7 Pi corner horns, and it will be interesting to see how yours turn out.
