Thanks, That is what I wanted to know.

I'm tempted to try out the M3's again. I sold my original pair to free up some funds. I'll never forget the first time I fired them up and heard their amazing midrange.

Price has gone up considerably though. I think I paid $220? when they first came out.

Are there any M3 owners around Clinton NJ?

I'll never forget the time I brought the M3's into a high end audio store. The owner thought they cost $800usd at the time.

Yep, there's just a high-pass filter on the M3's tweeter, and the woofer has its own natural mechanical/acoustical roll-off. You have to have a high-pass filter on the tweeter to keep out the bass frequencies, which would otherwise burn it out.

Nothing was changed sonically on the M3ti to the M3 v2. They are identical in sound. The Algonquin, which is just an M3 in outdoor clothes, also sounds virtually identical to its indoor cousin, with maybe a touch more "punch" in the lower bass. The latter is the only slight difference I heard in the blind tests comparing the Algonquin prototype with the M3 v2.
