Big wall of sound each time, but neither demo had good imaging. Just my experience, and yes, it could have been the setup.
Agree Curtis. I critically listened to the big Maggie's a while back and recently, some big Martin Logans. They do throw up a big wall of sound, but certainly had a very diffused and bloated image with an ill-defined soundstage. In other words, they didn't accurately present a realistic "live image" venue space, no matter the music genre! The Sierras are just the reverse in all areas of realistic presentation...much more musical, natural, accurate and Live Sounding, with everything in it's place as it is hearing it Live (to my ears, YMMV)!!!
