Illuminati (13th Degree)

My single favorite aspect of Horn loaded designs; the singers are properly placed in the mix. I find with direct radiators they emphasize the vocals and soloists in an unnatural forward thrust that gets annoying. The Pi 4's arrange music in a much more realistic manner. I can't say exactly what the dispersion pattern is but one thing I notice is they even sound natural listening from another room.
Can't say how many times people comment on that very fact.
Some albums that sounded as if the singer was twenty feet into the room now attain their rightfull position on the stage.
Another thing; pet peeve, is what the attraction is with single drivers. I don't get it. everything sounds like it is on one plane and the same hieght or position. My 2c.
