Ah, worn out electrolytics

So what is diminished is the crossover, not the tweeter. As for me, I've never sought dull sound. :)

I replaced the 13uF electrolytic in my New Advents with a 12 uF electrolytic and a 1 uF film. I also added wool dampers around the tweeters to reduce cabinet diffraction. The result is a greater sense of "openness" without adding brightness.

The modified Advents in the garage system sound quite natural to me.
