Good point. Didn't even consider the microphonic aspect. My primary motivation was to clean up the sound as best as possible, given the fact that the SCM19 has top shelf drivers, but the crossover parts didn't match the driver quality. Just using non inductive Mills resistors alone helps out a lot compared to the stock resistors. The Mundorf caps and foil coils also help.

Many of my favorite recordings sound as if a "master recording version" was suddenly discovered. Much bigger difference for the better than I thought it would be.

BTW, the Paul Klipsch reference harkens back to the golden age of audio. There still is something special about listening to a tricked out set of K-Horns (or high end horn setup) through a single ended triode amp. Not practical for many living conditions. Therefore, monitor/sub solutions work well.
