I don't know what vintage your speakers are, but Acoustat came out with
an upgrade for most of their speakers a few years ago involving the
transformer box.  It had a cutesy name, and wasn't too expensive as I
recall.  I heard reports that it was a substantial improvement.  You
may want to contact them and see if yours are pre-upgrade.

Hope this helps,
