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.

Weird, also have Forte's, 10ft apart, 10in off the wall, each toed in 2in off the wall. I sit 8ft away.  Good soundstage, good depth, feels like my stereo cabinet (sitting between the speakers) is talking to me. 

Used to have them 20in off the wall, 6in of toe. Found that I was missing most of my bass, the image was a little narrow and forced. With a small soundstage. 

During Christmas break, spent almost an entire day moving my speakers around. At the end of the day, this is what works for me.
