@bdp24, yes...nothing like having a tool yanked from your hand. 😬 Brass wrenches are better, but mind the alloy and test cheap. *l* Agreed, a nude Maggie isn't cute by no means and I'll give the 8's a nod for at least looking 'business-like' abo... 
We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often
@nevada_matt   Absolutely, and I'm mostly there. *G* 👍  Some tyding up to do, but... Born and vaguely bred in S/W grater LA, Long Breach. *L*  Backed into audio by way of shortwave/amateur radio, because it always sounded Better in the other room... 
How do you find time to enjoy your $$$ speakers and system?
I currently have the luxury of my 2nd system at my desk, so I've got my diy Walsh 2ways' driven by a small Phillips that's clean enough for an office.  Driven with CD or the 'puters.  One is work, the other is on hold.  There's that I listen to wh... 
My Impossible hum issue.
I had a persistent 'hmmm' for a time that drove me sane.... And, as noted, a funky cable not grounding well. Took persistence to track it down, and the obviousness of it... 🤦‍♂️😏 Glad you were able to find yours.... 👍👌  
Sound meter + equalizer = problem solved?
Old news, but just showing my age....*creak* ;) Was doing all this analog back in the ’80s’ with an Audio Control C-101 (series one, since that’s what appears to be what I ran...). Yes, ’room treatments’ would and could affect what one dealt with... 
Is a FLAT response the IDEAL?
I like flat, try to achieve it when possible.  Currently....*shrug*....tolerable, a whack space, basically. Preferred with beverage, no.  Spouse isn't. *L* @kenjit Truth, to beauty. 👍 @emrofsemanon , ditto...but take a breath, or at least, Caps...

@wsrrsw , as soon as I followed your link, I *L'd*.... Upon reading our OPs' opening statement and his desire for 41hz, the LFT 8s' seem like the rational choice, But ... There's always the '$ No Object' crowd....*G*  And I wish them well, and h... 
Tube tester?

LOUDEST Concert and Tinnitus
Loudest sound fortunate enough to Not be next to: 1/4 mi. from me, a local cranking up an Allison 12 on his dragboat, straight exhausts. Even at my young age (Jr. High), I knew I shouldn’t (and wouldn’t) be next to it. Even at idle, the popping s... 
New Outlets Lead to Better Sounding and Tasting Coffee
...as for 'better sounding coffee'.....I can't contribute, since I put my aids in After the grind 'n brew... Ensures I get them into the correct sides of my head....  
New Outlets Lead to Better Sounding and Tasting Coffee
"....pour the beans in on a running grinder..." ...and I’d have to duck bean scrapnel....not a way to start the day, nooo... That’s why the grinder has a lock-out, just like the m-wave to keep from baking my defib/pacer....and hand, face, and ot...
