So am I missing something as to why these are so popular? First off I have really only seen them in action at my lfs but I always notice the whirring sound and in my living room that would drive me nuts. Also I always see threads about people needing to replace wet side or dry side at 100 plus dollars. At the price these things go for that would infuriate me. I have cheap koralias that have lasted for years. Lastly they are only mountable one directionally and that would bother me as well. In a nutshell I think y'all is crazy, lol
