One of those damping strips seems possible. Not only would it provide more damping but I wonder if the central location of the strip doesn't reduce diaphragm dishing a bit?

I'm not sure that they have much leeway to adjust the tension and buttons -- I've noticed that the resonances are tuned to a musical scale and I'd guess nominally A440 tuning. I assume that this is to prevent the resonant sections from causing pitch shift which would sound discordant. So it's all basically set by the size of the driver and baffle, which determines the equalization curve they have to aim for.

I like Davey's guess about a series XO -- after all, they've gone to it on the rest of their line. Other obvious changes like a supertweeter would help but I doubt that they would spend the money on that since the MMG is their budget speaker and has to be kept as affordable as possible.

BTW, does anyone know if the .7 has a supertweeter like the 1.7?
