Vertical listening position is critical. Tilt back - or - unlikely - tilt forward. Vandersteen has a chart for this that I can scan and forward if you like.And, thanks for your admission/observation that they sound tonally accurate. I require a piano to sound like a piano. an oboe like an oboe - well - you know what I mean.............
Glad you're getting some pleasure from them. I WAS a bit nonplussed at your earlier observations as you might well expect.
All the best,
kava

Sure, I would appreciate it, these do have sound anchors on them. I have always known about tilting speakers backwards, but I don't recall getting a chart when I bought my 1C's (I think they were Cs could have been Bs). Anyway, I need to revise my original post, well I think I'll repost, but these are now bright on some Sinatra material. I think it's the metal domes. They are the equal in most if not all ways, and superior in many ways to my Jim Hotlz 3, but I increasingly believe that metal domes are bright and you lose detail when you try to tame them. Wondering about trying to replace the metal domes and tweaking the HF crossover to make that work now. I just don't know how else to approach it. My silk dome tweeters have all the detail, but are NOT harsh, or bright.
Best Regards,
Lou
