"The item that caught my eye in your review was the identification of a large series capacitor in the network. That's very rarely seen in speaker systems and one wonders why since this is a sealed-box system. I see no good reason for it."A large series cap can give a boost at low end where the speaker would other wise be rolling off (series C working into inductive portion of resonant peak). It's not often done because big capacitors with tight tolerances are hard to come by and expensive, and it also messes with group delay of the response.
