The most spacious sound I have heard was from a Lowther in a audiovector cabinet, here there is no direct sound at all since the driver fires straight upwards in a front horn for the mid/high and get reflected from the back wall and the ceiling.
The Lowther shriek was completely gone also!
The sound was appart from the weak bottom very very enjoyable, especially with symphonic music.
It sounded completely defocused like in a concert hall far away from the orchestra.
Maybe the lack of tilting in multiway systems produce some of the same effect?
