Travis Right now, I have the speakers returned to dead stock, save for the addition of crimp-on connectors on the crossover end of the wires connecting the drivers to the crossovers. Tightening the woofer bolts also seems to have made a considerable difference in the bass. They still don't sound quite like what I want, but the "vocal-forward" sound is growing on me, and as I said, the bass is improved since tightening the woofer bolts. I'm going to leave them stock for now, until I can decide on a course of action that I feel sure will result in an improvement. Also, I changed the output tubes in my CCAR amp from EL34's to 6L6GC's. These have a tad less output, but they also allow for a lower output impedance, making it easier to drive the 4-ohm woofers. I like the sound better than my SS Nikko. One thing that has struck me since tinkering with the toe-in of the Cornwalls: these things image like no one's business! My JBL's NEVER imaged like this. I think it's due to the fairly narrow dispersion of the mid horns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
