Veiled 'wet blanket' sound from tweeters

They are bi ampable, correct? Just hook up the tweeters and listen, don't turn it up..

Remove those silly jumper bars they use and add a  pair of good copper jumper wires. Just strip the ends and use that.

One will tell you if they are blown, or a crossover problem. The second will tell you is there is a poor connection (s).

Then, WHY there is a problem...What caused the problem? Overdriven or amp oscillation (clipping)..

OP, just make sure on the jumpers, that can cause all kinds of problems over time.. Just strip back some good copper, and get rid of the factory jumper. Dirt cheap, just to check, listen and see if there is a difference..

Check all your connections, loosen and retighten them. Plug and unplug them a few times to clean the pins, RCAs, XLRs, ICs and speaker cable if you use them, clean is good... fresh clean copper on the bi /wire/amp speaker post... They go bad.... They get dirty..

Cost nothing... LIKE MC said, did you change anything? always a clue, ay? Remember any loud pops, weird thing? anything?

Merry Christmas safe holidays, EVERYONE... Santa is on his way...

I love watching my Pup open presents.. LOL Junior too, the Bunny...

I have a tough time with that one for me, too. Speaker are the ultimate in sound OFF my head.. LOL. Head phones  can be good, but they wear me out, no matter how comfortable... I just like digging the detail out of floor standers, mid field.. med size room.. 16X20X8 or 9 is fine.. I like to be able to hear outside the headhear too. JUST in case something is going haywire..

YUP 5 X the cost for the same small setup, have to be careful, it could be 10 times that in a quick second.. :-)

Have to get the, the "Titian of tinker", "Most for the money" Mahgister  to ring out a system for you, LOW cost HIGH quality.. LOL I love when he chimes in... He was an avid HP guy, too.. Likes his SQ.. no doubt..
