I'll have to measure the separation of my front speakers when I get home tonight. As Nick mentioned, the effect of Width was not subtle in the past, sounds like M changed it during a subsequent firmware change. I tested both 2.12 and 2.59b and both sounded identical as far as Width.

It may be that, when the 568.2 was released (or upgraded, as in my case) that this happened. I would appreciate anyone else's experience here. Maybe someone with a 568.1 can weigh in on the effects of Width in their setup.

Thanks to all for your input.

John
