I'm breaking them in good. Watching the meters, these things shake the house with as little as 2 watts!
The bass was a bit sloppy and boomy at first. But, as the woofers break in, it's tightening up. I also had the phase on the woofers backwards, corrected that as well. I will be getting the Selenium drivers, eventually. The old Altecs have their virtues, but the highs start rolling off at about 10k hz. I know this because the amp has a 10k EQ on it, and without it up just about all of the way, I don't get much "sparkle" in the upper frequencies. With the L-Pad turned up too high, I get too much "shout" in the upper midrange.
Really, the x-overs were designed for the Seleniums anyways.
