    So I heard the Horizon is a 2 channel setup at Ascend's offices....non-RAAL.



    They sound great and do seem to have more slam than the Towers because of the front porting. BTW, midbass slam is in the the frequency area of around 60hz/80hz-120hz/150hz. So it is because of the front slot porting and woofers, not the dedicated midrange.

    They don't quite image as well because of the orientation of the front baffle being horizontal.

    Nice, makes sense. Thank you for correcting me, totally mixing up my terminology. Derp.
