Perhaps we are onto something?

Ok, prior to adding the jumper from the common to the common on the speaker terminals, I had no brightness issues. I also had no soundstage, et al. Now I have used a 10 Ohm Mills resistor between the positive terminals, and the highs are more tame.

I am wondering if the "Vandersteens are detailed" camp have this configuration, and the "Vandersteens sound like good speakers with blankets over them" camp have not done this??? I also wonder why the heck manufactures aren't doing this internally when they manufacture bi-wireable speakers?

Next, I may pull the Teflon caps to try them this way factory style, they may sound fine??? I don't grade speaker on a curve though folks, they are good, to my arbitrary standard(s), or they give me listening fatigue and are $hit. I do think speakers are a bit personal and my opinions are worth every penny you pay me for them! ;-)

Best Regards,

Lou
