Product Review (submitted on November 19, 2018):

After about three hours of breaking them in, what began as muddy bass cleared up completely. Unfortunately, the treble did not improve at the same time. The treble was strident and even tinny-sounding in places. I adjusted the treble on my receiver even to -6, but it did not improve the sound. At -8, the sound was completely ruined. Even though these speakers offer first-class bass reproduction, the tinny treble made them sound like cheap speakers. The booklet said that the break-in time was ten hours, but it only referred to the drivers. I called the company to see if a longer break-in period was necessary for the treble but only received the response that the break-in period was 10-12 hours. Perhaps if I had played them for 100 hours, they would have calmed down, but I am disabled and live in an apartment building. I go nowhere but the doctor's office and church. This is just not something I could accomplish, especially since I cannot bear the sound of them. I am sending them back.
