I've got a pair of Wharfedale MFM7's.  Overall, I'm mostly satisfied with the
quality.  The only thing I wish for was some stronger highs from the
speakers. I tend to turn the "treble" up very high on the reciever which does
a little, but not enough, to enhance this range.  Also, turning up this
treble all the way can introduce other interferences into the sound.  Mids
and Bass sound fine.

What are my options?   I could replace the tweeter, but that might be hard,
especially since these are imported from England, to find something that fits.
Can I take it to a hi-fi shop and get the internal crossovers adjusted?  Is
this type of thing done often?

any advice would be appreciated... please copy me via e-mail at
jason@jasonsweb.com.  Thanks!
