Sound staging; Sepertaes Vs. Integrated


Is ther a technical reason as to why seperates can (Or do) throw a wider and or deeper soundstage? I have great imaging from my integrated but, also remember that my seperates that I used to have threw a bigger stage and was wondering why that might be and if someone could could help as to the reason(s) why that might be?

This seems to be based upon a tacit assumption... that being that somehow separates provide better staging than do integrateds. I am unconvinced that this is true... or even testable. One would need both separates and an integrated of the exact company with the exact circuit components and then compare between them... and then see if there is a difference.

Likely what you have experienced is higher quality separates compared to lesser quality integrateds.. and there you perceive distinctivess in staging.

The premise is itself flawed.
