Height of subs shouldn't matter as much as the ls50's and even those can be tilted a few degrees if necessary. Measurements show the uniq driver is linear to +30deg so toe in shouldn't be necessary yet some reviewers still claim improvements from pointing the speakers directly at the listening chair.

The uniq in the Blade and Blade 2 have a 3" voice coil and multiple other considerations intended for hi power handling and high output with low distortion  unique to any of the other models before or since. Like most speakers in their price range they respond to components driving them so could sound amazing or just average(for the money) depending on the individual component matching. 

On a budget the ls60 is the safe bet but the ceiling can't compete with what the blade's can do when a systems built around them.
