FWIW, I understood you the 1st time. It was my 1st impression too. That's why I bought one. Been there, done that. Don't get me wrong, I'm not discounting the speaker. I still love it. I'm just saying it gets better. Almost, wet dreams better.In fact, I've promised to buy my local dealer's demo for another & stack them with the 2 tweeters meeting. In that way, I can center the central image with an MTM configuration while supplying more surface area to increase its image. The current image size discrepancy with my MG2.7s is annoying. This ought to kill 2 birds with one stone & if the increased surface area happens to extend the bass into actually exhibiting some, so much the better.
However, after much searching for an amp carting around my MGLR1, I tried a Krell KAV & never looked back. You wouldn't believe how much the XO attenuates until you check it out for yourself. It's not my intention to demean your system. It is my intention to recommend trying a Krell. Not buy, Listen. Just listen, & then tell me I'm full of it.
