open baffle speaker question
Magnepans aren't open baffle speakers. 
High-end amplifier clarification?
Funny question. You must know that the answers you will get are based on an individual's subjective opinion, so what is your point? 
How far apart do you position your speakers ?
I'm also curious about where the 83% measurement is being taken from. Is it the inside edge, outside edge or driver center? 
How far apart do you position your speakers ?
Inna,Are you saying the distance between the speakers should be 1.5-2 times the height of the speaker? That's just plain weird. I have never heard of that, and it doesn't make sense. Every speaker has a different dispersion pattern and sensitiviti...

Kclone,No, I have owned a speaker with a ribbon tweeter in the past, but I have never heard an RAAL, and I have never heard the Vapor speaker either. I only mentioned it because a member here bought it, and gave it a great review, and it looked li...

A tale of WAF
When I first moved in with my partner, I had Klipschorns, and in our small apartment, it didn't go over very well, and I eventually agreed to downsize. Thirty-two years have passed since then, he still prefers small monitors, but accepts without c... 
Dynaudio C5 and Cary CAD-805 AE is possible?????
I don't think it is going to work, at least at any realistic volumes. Those speakers like power in reserve. 
Review: Green Mountain Audio Eos vs Callisto Monitor
It never looks good when you post a review of an item you are selling, but good luck. I know that they are supposed to be great speakers. 
Speaker appearance verses musicality.
In the mid '80s, I was using a set of large TDL 4way floorstanding speakers. They baffle had a frame around it like many speakers of that time so that the grill could be inset. I had the same idea as you, based on suggestions in magazines. I caref... 
The best speaker you ever heard?
Squarewavespeakers,Do you produce speakers of your own design for sale commercially?
