1) When you swapped cables, sources and amps the imbalance did not change, correct?
Correct
2) When you swapped the drivers between left and right speakers the imbalance still did not change, correct?
Correct
3) When you physically switched the right and left speakers the imbalance still did not change?
The imbalance didn't change - it stayed with the speaker. If it was on the left (louder) and I moved that speaker to the right then the loudness was now on the right. So I'm pretty sure it's in the actual speaker and not a room effect. Same thing when I change rooms. That one speaker is just louder (or, depending on your perspective, one speaker plays more softly)
If this is correct then there is a problem with the room. If the imbalance changed to the other side when you physically switched the right and left speakers then the problem is in the speaker, and if number 2 above is correct then it has to be in the wiring or crossover in the speakers since swapping drivers did not do anything.
Unless I'm missing something.
Nope - you pretty much got it. I'm going to change the 3.3 caps out (if I have replacements - and I should - I have a couple of big boxes full of crossovers and parts).
If that doesn't help then I believe I'll try changing the adjustment pots or L-pads or whatever the hell they're called. I really hope I doonI'm gonna' get this. It's pissing me off - I really like those speakers and I'm going to get this right! Dammit!
