Since your amplifier undoubtedly has a treble control, you don't
really need those controls anyhow.

They're kind of a conceit, I guess, for audiophools who thought
they should "tune" the speakers to their "soundspace" or whatever.

Level controls were on speakers long, long before there were "audiophools".

Some rooms are bright or dull, and require some adjustment from the
speakers. Continuously variable controls were gradually replaced with a two-
or three-position switch. Many modern speakers have no controls at all,
probably because the designers don't want the listener screwing with their
work.

These controls are extremely useful, to say the least. Don't condemn them if
you're never used them.

Well, OK, I'm not condemning them; just saying that it's not the end of
the world if one has to sacrifice their function on a pair of otherwise
very good speakers acquired cheaply.
