What speaker has the best tweeter?
The DMD tweeter in my Usher Dancers is pretty darn good! 
Best live albums from 1970's college days
@whipsaw You are absolutely correct about that Earth, Wind & Fire "Alive In '75" record.  I've been on an R&B kick lately and streamed that album the other night.  Lightning in a bottle....that crowd definitely got their money's worth!

Tekton Double Impacts
I would gladly sell my Tektons.  I never use them.

Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts
@rooze If your HSU subs lack continuously variable phase adjustment, then integration is more difficult.  A simple method for integrating subs with mains is to disconnect one speaker and the sub residing closest to that speaker.  At a medium volum...
