Fair enough.  I appreciate the civil tone of your reply and am glad this
is behind us.

Well, the way things have been explained to me is like this:

The stereo image depends, ideally, upon a point source beamed directly
at each ear.  Now, suppose your speakers are on-axis.  That means that
you are getting the center of the waves emanating from the speakers. 
That is what you hear.  Geometrically, how could you hear something to
the outside of that line, unless it was reflected off a surface in some
way?

Again, I prefer the omni-directional nature of box speakers (although
calling the Scorpios a box is a stretch).  There is reflected sound
and, done right, I suppose, it sounds right.  

Rather than batting this around, then, I would appreciate your
explanation.  I mean this sincerely.
