Rolling Stones prided themselves in making recordings of poor quality, more "raw". 
New Thiel Speakers - Post Jim Thiel Era
Until these new anti-Thiels can demonstrate that they can pass a square wave, I won't even bother giving them a consideration. They may have bought the right to use the name, but a little respect for the dead is in order. Try selling it without de...

Like what you like. It's about pleasing your ears. With that said, I wouldn't be surprised if different placement might change your perspective. Of course the 7's just might work better in your room, or just press your buttons better.
