Jack,

I like your description of "Boom/Sizzle" speakers... Unfortunately,
many people don't seem to care much about audio quality these days.

As far as performance goes, I like the stock speakers. I find them
pretty balanced and plenty sufficient for music listening at
reasonable sound pressure levels... If cleaning a connector could
restore my system to normal performance, I would certainly try that
out before replacing the speakers.

Thanks for the tip.

Tom
