I mentioned in a previous post that I was hearing some unnatural brightness that distracted from the music. It turns out I had run out of acoustic insulating material and hadn't put any on the interior side panels. Apparently this was causing a reinforcement/ cancellation effect that produced comb lines at the listening position - moving my head a half inch to either side would turn Nora Jones' voice from mellow to unnaturally siblant. I installed the damping material today and that fixed the problem. They are still bright, but not so much that the brightness distracts from the music. They now sound very much like I recall the Fostex drivers sounded.
