Not to be a sour puss, but considerable resources must have been used in designing these speakers. This can only mean no one cares to fix or is able to fix the bugs carried by the 970. I, like pretty much most 970 owners, am still waiting for the no audio fix. Sorry, these speakers could win Product of The Year honors but Outlaw gets no more of my money until the 970's 'features' (a cruel connotation given by my audiophile friends) are corrected.
