Hmm. I have a set of Legacy Classics, as well as a set of Legacy Signature IIIs, which are NOT ported.
I have the Sig IIIs bi-wired with Tara Labs RSC bi-wire, and the sound is pretty good, except that mine have the polypropolene mid drivers rather than the kevlar ones that came later. So, there is just a touch of mid-range ringing with vocals at high volumes. The bass is good and tight, but that may be more a function of the sealed box design.
I just have the Classics connected with some plain monster heavy stranded cable, not bi-wired. They do seem to have a lot of bass, but that may be largely a function of my only possible listening location(in that room) right against the back wall. I am interested in bi-wiring them with some better cable soon.
Interesting comments about stuffing the ports of the Classics. I would like to find out some more about that.
