Hi there. Head-fi has been so helpful with all my other audio problems, and so I turn to you once more. Today I picked up off the curb a nice looking set of speakers. Turns out I found a pair of Clements Audio 108di. I hooked them up to my el-cheapo home theater amp (Yamaha HTR-5640) and...they work, but the midrange is very muffled. Guitar sounds like it's being played behind an extremely thick wool curtain. The thing that makes me think they are salvageable is the bass sounds absolutely wonderful. In other words, just the midrange, and to some extent the treble, is wonky. Could this be due to being underpowered? The website says the speaker's little brother 107di (couldn't find info for 108 directly) are rated for 80w, but the receiver only puts out 75w. Could this be the problem? Something else? Or are they indeed garbage? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
