You are gonna love the T 7s!!!!!
They should open up a bit more, relax a bit soon, but be at their best in 100 hours. IMHO.
I paired my with the FF 5 sub, as I just like more bass. But for many people that might not be necessary. Are you using a sub? Are these for music only, or do you use them in a home theater?
Enjoy them, happy listening and welcome here,

Hey Wayne,

Thanks for the reply, wow 100 hours! well it is what it is. Right now I'm not using a sub I'm selling my current ones and looking for new ones. I'm looking at a couple of different brands along with the FF5, if the price point were a little less I would seriously consider the supersub X.

they definitely need a sub .. i was told the 5's are way better .. Also make sure you have a good amp.. Im looking to run this with a yamaha rxa2070

Welcome to the forum, and great choice of speakers! Can't say as I've heard the term "slightly congested" applied to any GEt speaker before, mid range or otherwise. Open, clean, clear, rich, yes, slightly congested, no. Something sounds wrong somewhere. Break-in time for speakers is usually in the 40-60 hour range, but what typically blossoms is bass, with some smoothing of treble in some cases.

So where could the issue be? One thing I'd try is speaker placement adjustments in case room dynamics are part of the issue. From your pictures, I would want to try moving the left T7 further left and toed in more toward the PLP. All room SQ dynamics are different, and some playing with speaker placement can pay big dividends.

If placement adjustments don't yield much, I guess I'd want to look at player/receiver/pre/pro settings. Any EQ settings should be off with GEt speakers. They don't need help.

If none of the above yields improvements, help us understand what sources/players/receivers or amps you are using to feed the T7's. You are on the right track! T7's should provide amazing sound quality.

Keep working it. Mid range congestion is definitely not part of any GEt speaker's heritage.

Good luck and happy listening!

are you saying that audesy or ypao should not be performed with any golden ears ??
