If you address their need properly. For one thing the 801 matrix speakers are ruthlessly revealing of the source and its ancillary equipment.
Here's some of the things that you can do, which will improve its performance.
1. Place it on a sound anchor and if you don't have one make one out of blocks of cement about 11" in height. This will raise the tweeters slightly above your ears, depending on the height of your listening chair. This will alleviate the one note sound on the bass and will improve the sound staging depths and width coupled with coherent and tight sounding.
2. Give them plenty of room to breath as much as your listening room would allow. About 7' is the minimum distance between the two speakers and 4' away from the front wall.
3. Carpeted floor and room tunes are very essential with these speakers.
4. Last but not least, feed them with the best electronics that you can afford.
If all of these measures are in place and it still sound harsh then it's time to replace the tweeters.
Enjoy...
