Mine sounded sublime up there pre-service . . . but I got greedy and assumed the service would improve upon that yardstick . . . .

Oh well kids just goes to show, grass aint always greener . . .

They still do sound fantastic, except when a sub 200Hz bass note comes in and messes everything up.

I did try a few things last night - more absorption material - raised 20 cm - moved forward - moved back . . . but still the boom is there.

Might give that EQ a try as a last resort otherwise I might well be looking for speaker recommendations . . .

But, where do you go from a good sounding pair of 57's?! . . . .

I've had horns up there too quite successfully (Loth X) but something tells me its likely to have to be a compromise . . .
