A friend just released a cello/piano duo recording made in the "Live Room" at Oktaven audiO, Mt. Vernon, NY. I thought it sounded realistic and well-balanced, so I looked up the studio website.

I did note that the Barefoot monitors are set up with the tweeters "outboard" of the woofers, maybe to get a wider soundstage. I dimly remember some technical discussions suggesting that placing the woofers outboard make up for some of the theoretical limitations of stereo.

But you probably meant the monitors themselves? I've never heard Barefoot monitors.
