    I was mainly aiming to compensate for acoustic anormalies specifically for my own chair in my room. This is the chair on which I mostly listen to music.

    104H vs. 104H-2

    The 240ti i'm getting uses 104H as midrange. One of the drivers has a 'pushed in' dustcap. Nothing serious I imagine except cosmetics??

    What is the difference between 104H and 104H-2 ?
