Yup--I have one about 4 feet away. I've been too busy with BMR shipments and some related Fed Ex nuclear attacks to perform a proper triage. The patient is definitely ill. The brightness is searing on complex music. I measured the same high distortion as Amir, although I would need to disconnect the woofers to see whether it's coming from the tweeter. My initial thought was that the tweeter was crossed too low, and that was the source of the problem, but looking at Amir's plots, the woofer peak may be the main problem. I think Amir has it exactly right--too bright, but excellent bass. Are these things still on sale? If so, I would be tempted to get rid of the 2.5 architecture and just go with a properly designed 2.0 with a higher crossover point. Directivity control will suffer, but I can't imagine that this approach wouldn't improve the sound. None of this would make sense if they're back up to the old selling price.
