Kenjit, can you describe your room and amplifier? Assuming dbb and Mr. Cochran are not deaf, it is possible that there is a serious problem elsewhere in your system that you are mistakenly attributing to the Chromas.Audiokinesis, it's been a long time since I bought the chromas. It's beyond the point where I'm trying to figure out why they don't sound good. I have already discovered why they don't satisfy me.
The main mistakes / reasons are :
1. Wrong box / woofer combination
2. The tweeter used in mine were not impedance corrected and not rolling off sufficiently.
3. Crossover was not optimised
