Interesting experience with two very different speaker designs
As  Dan Aykroyd eloquently said:  https://youtu.be/c91XUyg9iWM?t=66 However putting the driver ina closed cabinet will only give a tighter low bass, maybe increase over all perfmonace, Not sure. With OB's some of the speakers energy is wasted...

I tried to start a abuse thread for just that purpose.  All the snark, put downs and attacks were posted there to help clean up all the rest.I was immediately deleted by the monitors.That said I still think Two Left Ears is one of the funniest han... 
HiFi vs MidFi
Maybe you didn't see my earlier post.  Defiantly not about expense.  http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews2/caintuck/2.htmlPrices have gone up since this post but they still exist. I believe that everything matters even the blue birds 
HiFi vs MidFi
So HIFI poisoned Snow White?  I'm so confused 
HiFi vs MidFi
HIFI is defiantly different than MidFi.  I lived with MidFi for years good but never great.  Once you lived with HIFI you know the difference.  I relate it to once you've see a photo taken with a superior lens the clarity and depth and colors are ...

Should I pull the trigger?
Nahh you should steal them when they aren't home.  Armed robbery carries a much bigger penalty.   
The Most Cost Effective Tweak
I'm not an electrician but I think the safety issue with a cheater plug is way over blown.  On a skill saw probably a lot more important as you're actually holding the device.  Your toaster isn't a three prong and unless you forget to unplug it wh... 
Interesting experience with two very different speaker designs
I had the same experience with ADS L12390ii and Dahlquist DQ12s.  The Dahquist are hybrids with a open top and a sealed woofer creating a tighter bass.  The NOLA speaker still use this configuration.  Teckton does make an open baffle also using a ... 
The Most Cost Effective Tweak
Three to two prong cheater plug.  Common ground contains all the interference from everything in the house and contaminates your signal..  Three dollar tweak.  You may want to try several. (nine dollar tweak) I found just isolating the amp provide...
