Thanks all for your responses!
I love the sound of this system, yet I know it is not the best it could be; particularly due to WAF, speaker placement is not optimal. Currently speakers sit astride an entertainment center housing TV & electronics. Won't be able to do anything about it until we remodel living area (I'm not talking about moving furniture but tearing down plaster, new walls, etc. and that project is not in the near future). At least the monitors are front ported which helps with bass response. THe JA have excellant dispersion, for this price range, as well which also helps.
