Just to show you all that audiophile foolery is a disease that effects all humans irrespective of wealth, nationality and IQ.

The sane reader will, I believe, have a giggle over this, others not so !

Cant wait to hear his cable review !

So, I guess this image tells us one of two things. Wharfedale (or their ad agency) took the knowledge that @amirm tests single loudspeakers and ran with it... or the dispersion characteristics of these Wharfies must be exceptional.
EDIT: note that they are mirror-imaged. :)

:cool:;):facepalm:

Kind of reminds me of the Klipsch website a few years ago. The site had stylish images of hip, happenin' people sitting in converted manufacturing space-style lofts, presumably listening to Klipsch loudspeakers -- but the speakers were at right angles to the folks, or even behind them. The truth being, of course, that's probably the best way to endure them (if one must be in the same room as a pair of Klipsch loudspeakers). ;)

Thats very similar to how people actually placed speakers back when they had this look :)
you be happy of L and R is in the same room , one speaker directly on floor is good tweeters at ankles and the other one tilted the side to fit in a bookshelf . stereo triangle what’s that ?

Side tilting also aides couch listening when lieing prone, which I often did in my teens and twenties.
 
Or is this just a real world implementation of the WAF ?
I'm sure us men are in full denial ;). Still .....

Back when "stack systems" were all the rage, it was common for people to set them up like this on a sideboard or cabinet in the living room:

Once you're more than 3 feet away, it may as well be mono. I still see people that have little mini systems set up the same way. :facepalm:

If it was one of those systems that came built into a cabinet, they'd just place the speakers on the floor either side of it:

Without looking too close, I'm pretty sure this is a 3D render. What are the big not-LP things by the speakers supposed to be? Is that a cheeseburger by the giant light bulb? There's a lot of sixth-finger type elements.
