i'd rather improve on superzeros though

i only wish NHT would at least upgrade the tweeters on superzeros. something CHEAP like dayton's (formerly MB quart) titanium dome would really add speed, extension and transparency to the system, but a nice premium woofer wouldn't hurt either.

i had high hopes that the energy RC-10s i got an amazing deal ($220 i think) on closeout would have been just what i'm looking for. but with their ports plugged, there was always enough box resonance that it detracted greatly from my enjoyment of the music even if both the woofer and tweeter walked all of zero drivers from bass extension through treble air.

i just didn't think that speakers originally priced at $570 would ever use such flimsy cabinets when i bought them. at one point, i thought about having new boxes built to put everything in, but it's got to be hard to rout for a square framed woofer. i loved the energy drivers so much.
If it's ported, it's distorted.
