Thanks dave.
Your efforts to put out a very high quality speaker, at a bargain price, have definitely been a success in my book!!
I LIKE the looks of the 170s(and the 340 of course), sure there are much fancier cabinets out there, but these blend in without issue, and are simple, good looking speakers, they don't call out, until you turn them ON!!
It's clear to me, that you put the R&D $ into the inside of the box, which IMO is how it should be done.
Congrats on a fine product.
I hope you, and the rest of the family feel better soon, it's a real bummer being sick, especially during the Holidays.
Get well soon.
