I started this for those of us who might be interested in buying a pair of the new Horizons to use as front mains, stand mounted.

Dave started another thread where he commented that they sounded really good this way, better horizontally. I would like to mount the speakers vertically.

I suspect the Sierra-1 centers aren't just Sierra-1's turned on their side, but I don't know what was done.

Any thoughts, or suggestions?

Turned on their sides and the tweeter rotated.

Really? How cool!

I want to hear more about this. And, listening impressions.

Thank you.

They sound like a Sierra-1.

On Steroids?
The Sierra-1 center? No. It sounds like a Sierra-1.

Curious as to why you think it sounds like it is on steroids. Unless you are referring to the Sierra "Horizon"?
