    I think they have been great. I think they are honest in my limited speaker experiences. They do sound big and clean and think at times they would be better served by me having a slightly bigger room. Giving them more space to really show what they can do.

    They have certainly revealed the electronics upstream which is good. The bass is enough for me for two channel listening with these. For movies the Hsu comes on.

    I view it as the last thing I'd be upgrading in my system.

    I think the Seas do the trick. Others might say sure great drivers but oh the crossovers are this or they are just in some plain ordinary wooden box. I say great. I'm happy with the whole package. I'm done hunting speakers for now until I hit the lottery.

    Awesome man --

    Yeah, I really like Ty's new style cabinets with the slants over the old normal styles --

    Just makes them look a little more interesting and imposing....

    The Super Towers are beastly - for sure.

    Ty's crossovers are excellent --- these drivers are sweet too. Did you buy them new? If so - how long did it take for them to really break in?

    Got mine used and well broken in. Those things are Monsters - no question. I'd really need a new house to bring those things home not to mention a change in the economic climate! ; )

    It's a combination of everything. I use Seas drivers for other projects and it's possible to have the soundstage collapse with poor crossover specs and/or components.

    Well that is the good thing about Ty - he uses some top notch crossover components - and it shows.

    This is the first time I have really listened to the rig in months -- this is the kind of sound I have been looking for... 100% -- tall, big, surreal almost.

    I am going to see if Ty will make some matching "bass modules" with the Seas 10" woofer -- One woofer per side, in a shallow but tall cabinet -- with a passive crossover that will match the Super Towers...

    Would be awesome - get a used Stratos amp and I'll be ready to roll with some extra bass extention... :)

    Are your speakers broken in yet?
