Do you think the broad dip around 2 kHz gives rise to the tinnyness? Amir wrote that the overall sound got too bright when he tried to EQ the dip so he leveled the peaks higher up.

Yeah i think the 2k region could be why they sound so thin , i would describe it as lifeless / unmusical . I tried fixing this with sonarworks and it helped but i noticed that my mixes were too scooped in the 2k region and too bassy . Adding eq to the scooped higher mids makes the speakers sound shouty and bright , which is why my mixes were scooped in that region . The bass can also get slow & muddy in an untreated room , a front port would have helped , but i dont think m-audio want to take the risk of designing a front port , i mean they cant even design a good rear port
