Problem solved.


I think it was my amp. Different amp, problem goes away. Also I found that I had the speakers in bad locations, which only made matters worse. After a bit of rearranging, I found a way to situate the speakers so that they are about four feet apart instead of being right next to each other. This little change made all the difference in the world. I think that being directly on-axis was contributing to the harshness that I heard before. Between having a bad amp and bad speaker placement, the difference in sound quality was night and day after I got things right. I'll post a more complete review on the forum once I scan the pictures I took, but right now I'll say that I'm very impressed.

Thank you, Wayne, for all the help and for designing such good speakers.

Mike
