Yeah those GE speakers are so good that you can put them haphazardly anywhere in the room and achieve excellent sound. One right next to your chair and the other somewhere in front of you (location not important)............Not sure whether Ozzy was being sarcastic or not but I've had the same experience with my GE Triton 1r's. My most comfortable recliner is basically right in line with my right channel speaker. While i have a perfectly acceptable sitting position in the "sweet spot", I prefer the recliner and I'm amazed at how well the Triton 1r's image while presenting a wide soundstage. Music is so enjoyable I hardly ever sit in the sweet spot. I switched to GE and traded in my ML stats mainly because because the stats were unforgiving unless you were in the sweet spot. To me, the GE Triton 1r's are amazing in my all tube system and a hell of a bargain although they've raised the price a bit since I purchased them.
