I bet your speakers really do sound great! I have read about your story somewhere about 10 months ago and would love to have the mangers. I have had similiar results with my Aria5/Raven1's. They are much better than many audiophile speakers costing 2k to 4k. As for the baffle Eq, I just added one to my DIY active crossover for a Morel 2-way. Too bad it made the sound too bassy with muddy low midrange/high bass. I only used 3db of boost. This took 4 hours of my time that I wish I had back. I guess you had much better luck. Many people do not. The final solution for me was making the first 2nd order filter have a lower xover point(1113.9hz) while the second 2nd order filter was left unchanged(1931.2hz). (2nd order plus 2nd order equals my 4th order filters). The response is now flat and I am a very happy DIYer. I am not too smart about some things and any success I have with my DIY projects makes me feel better about myself. I believe sucess takes a combination of technical AND audiophile knowledge.
