If you want to shock yourself silly with staging and imaging, use a laser pointer to aim your speakers.

Set them up as you would normally, measuring distances and listening for suck-out, etc. THEN, when you think it's perfect, place a laser with a flat rear on the baffle and aim the speaker at your listening position where your ears would be.

If your tweeters beam a bit, aim them slightly outside (or inside, experiment) of where your ears would be. If you can imagine, 1/4 of an inch difference at the speaker at 8' away is more like 8 or 10 inches (I ain't no mathermertishun!)!

It is shockingly unbelievable!
