RE: Magnepan 1.7 high frequency harshness

Isn't playing around with setup part of the fun? I had actually read a number of posts about setting up the 1.7s before I got mine last year. I was already primed to try a number of things. As some have suggested, I now have them tweeters facing in. That gives me better center focused soundstage. With the tweeters out my small room was not allowing the soundstage to spread enough I imagine. All I know is I like the effect better with a more centered image. I also have them tilted back some. I think that has helped some due to the small room I'm in. Tilting them helped the front-back imaging and raised the soundstage some. I am hoping to be able to put them in a much larger room someday and see how they do when they are able to command more air space.

The speakers were more than fully broken in (8 months) when I changed over to the Anti-cables. I have no doubt they are a providing a large improvement.
