Yes - St. Louis. I purchased my 20.7's back in 2012 from Illinois and then had them shipped here.
I currently use 3 ohm mills resistors on the mids and tweeters. |

What amplifier do you use to drive your 20.7s? |

No attenuators either. But you should replace the U shaped jumpers with a good jumper wire.

I use two Wyred SX-1000 monos. Great amps - smooth, powerful, etc.
I find padding down the mids/tweeter by 6db increases the bass weight and provides a balanced sound. |

Caelin - what do you recommend for good jumper wire?

Instead of a jumper I just use our 9 gauge VTX wire which fits snugly into the terminals without any banana connectors. I can post a photo if you like to see it.

Thanks for showing us your tweak, Caelin. I might try something similar, but honestly I'm very happy with the sound now (but yes, I'm sure it can get better) I noticed the tensioner on the after-market stand. Is that a modified Mye stand? |

It is a Sound Anchor base. The gizmo allows you to adjust the angle of the speaker front to back. I had a Mye stand for the 1.7s. Didn't like the look of the speaker. The Sound Anchor is well made, solid and looks good. I am using StillPoints SS under the stand.

Thanks for the details, Caelin. My Mye Stands are the stealth variation so they are not visible at all from the listening chair - the whole structure is behind the panel, but it does need a counterweight for stability.

Hm, that's an improvement from the Mye that I had for the 1.7s. They messed up the beautiful aesthetic of the speaker.
The Sound Anchor is rock solid, very stable - not a chance of tipping over even with the Stillpoints installed. With the angle adjustment you can control the vertical launch of the speaker versus seating position. It makes a surprising difference.
