Welcome to AoS Dean,

Stacked Quads are awesome both in visual impact and sound quality.

Enjoy the Forum

Thanks guys.
Stacked Quads are good but their limited hf/lf/spl/single listener seat make them suitable for a few applications. Once I abandoned them I think my musical tastes/enjoyment really broadened and the whole music thing became a whole lot more sociable.

It all depends on how the stacking is done. SPL is doubled, and the FR is extended by a small amount in both directions.
