For those who don't know, the front half of the Tube (where the chrome button is) is covered with a treble diffusing panel, while the back isn't. This makes the Tubes adjustable, either directing ambiance one or another, or simply absorbing everything. It can take some experimenting to hear where the best balance is, and that is what Howard worked on.

Hi Michael,
I moved top only and then bottom only and then both and every variation I could come up with. One position - buttons aiming to listener's left and listner's right - dramatically increased the soundstage and detailed bass definition. Most important is the ability to adjust the traps almost infinitely to achieve your individual goals.
You are not getting them back and my wife loves the look.
Howard
