I picked up a pair of these and yet another single one to build a good pair. All 3 work, but seem quite flat. This surprised me as I have heard that Klipsch horns can be quite forward. The high end is very lacking on all 3. Can this be repaired or are these RB5 speakers just not very good?
Note: system powered by Denon amp 100 wpc, 20-20 freq. Compared these to Polk RTA-8T towers. Polk 8T's destroyed the Klipsch.
Thoughts please?
