Tremendous. That musical play apparently was generated with real microphones with real stereo, rather than "fake" stereo generated by mixer (dual channel audio vs. "stereo"). The *very* wide image is VERY impressive. I would assume the new (Polk I think) imaging speaker system would have the same effect on this album set. I have not found any "rock" album to have any noticeable expansion (presumably due to the mixer generation that lacks "proper" image information). Note: the expanded image is WIDER than the speaker spacing by quite a bit. Mike Kersenbrock Tektronix Microcomputer Development Products Aloha, Oregon
