I was wondering about that post. I don't have the best speakers in the audiophile world but they are ok. And when I bought them they were about 1600 and I really enjoy them. BMW P5's which have an ok rating. I can't believe they would cheap out on a part when the case and speakers couldn't have been that expensive at the time. This was the mid 90's and I would think that they were made the way they wanted them to sound. Not saying you couldn't improve them but they had way more experience to add to them than someone like us, I have to believe that. Maybe I could make a bit of an improvement now with modern stuff but I don't think they used crap back then. Maybe because this shows my extent into the audiophile lounge I'm defensive but I have to believe they did the best at the time. And I like them. :)
