The crossovers in question are working with drivers manufactured with laser-etched diaphragms, not copper wire wound on a former. I have often demonstrated the sonic effects of changing our crossovers by as little as 0.0047uF in a 241uF package. Some people can hear it, others don't. I can tell you that such precision is absolutely necessary to maintaining the sound of our speakers. It is probably not necessary for whatever your speakers might be.You're welcome to remain sceptical, as it doesn't appear my arguments have any effect on your prejudices.
We don't charge a dime for trimming the crossovers; I do it myself. As a matter of fact, the 22 manhours it takes to make a pair of RM 40's don't appear on our cost accounting at all, or the system would sell for $2000 more.
It's nice to know the same people who barely question rebadged foreign goods with 1000% markups will complain as loudly when they find the opposite(i.e. real value).
