Jeff Rowland did something similar when he got criticized for using ICEpower in his amps.

Poor Maab. He buys a pair of nice speakers, looks forward to using them, doesn't want to do anything wrong in setting them up, and gets hit by an avalanche of derision by KOS, starting from post nr. 1 from him. Congratulations with your new speakers, Maab. Hope you're enjoying them.
