Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why.

I’ve been experimenting with toe in and tweeter position (inside v. outside) for my LRS and ProAC Studio 3 speakers. My listening position is about 8.5 feet from the speakers front surface.

In both cases I ended up with tweeters on the inside and zero toe in. I like the more immersive soundstage I get with zero toe in. I sacrifice a little of the lock in for the center image.

Zero toe in also makes my sweet spot for listening a little wider.

Sorry about the incorrect spelling and the missing question mark in the subject. I couldn’t edit the subject.

I have three pairs of speakers in different rooms, and none are toed-in.  One pair is my Apogee Duetta IIs, which I don't think anyone toes in.  The others are conventional floor-standing box speakers, mid-level models by Paradigm and PSB that I use for background music, but sound fine with no toe-in.

IIRC, when I had Maggie IIIs in my main listening room, I toed those in.
