You're not running your JL subs with those monsters, are you? Just curious.
I don't have them anymore but yes, they actually did get only better with time.. There was never any need for subs in my room with the Canterbury's. They actually had adjustable bass ports that you would slide open or closed with a wooden dowel to tune to the room. I had to close my ports a bit from full open as they started to overload the room with bass. That 15" driver sure could produce some real thumping and realistic bass. I always got a kick out of how effortlessly the 10w Shindo SET amp could drive them and bass sounded soooo good...
