I also have a thing for sealed speakers. Ports blow. (get it?)
However, I'm not going to give any "free pass" to the HTM-200 because they are smaller and sealed. If I don't like 'em they are going back. I very much doubt this will be the case.
They use the same tweeter as the 170s, and TWO 4" woofers, as Quinn pointed out. With the 120+ watts per channel my amp puts out, I don't see me exceeding the dynamic range of these things anytime soon. Especially in my tiny room.
