After reading the post on "massaging tweeters" I thought I'd give it a go.....

I got me a folding chair and sat real close to my tweeter and whispered:

"...you're a good tweeter, boy. Yes you are. You're better than Klipsch, and Totem, and Energy, and everybody else. You are a good tweeter. You never sound sibilant, you take massive watts and never strain or sound grainy. You're a good boy, tweeter...

Popped in a Jazz CD and BAM! They sounded fantastic. Presence, imaging, transparency, extension----all for the price of a nice tweeter massaging.

Do it fellas, seriously. just make sure the wife ain't home. :D

    VERY funny, steve...

    And here I thought the other thread was strickly talking about mechanical massaging... Never considered a speaker's fragile ego...
