Hi Jack, I am in the process of turning my library into a dedicated listening room and after extensive listening keep coming back to the C4's. The problem is that my room is only 20x16 with 10 foot ceilings and I am concerned about room interactions with the C4's. Everytime I have auditioned them they appear to be a tad heavy on the mid-upper bass, and due to room configuration I need to place the speaker no more than 4 feet from the front wall and 3 feet from the side walls. I do have carpeting and will be placing drapes plus heavy furniture.
Did you ever consider obstructing the ports?
Would appreciate your input.
Regards,
