I understand your feelings completely. Thankfully, neither of the two pairs of SL speakers that I have owned in the last 9 years has given me so much trouble. I searched all these posts, and I can't determine whether you ever tried the experiment that I and others recommended: substitute a different pair of high-power amplifiers. It wouldn't matter whether the substitute amps were ss or vacuum tube types. Unless you are otherwise absolutely positively certain that the Wolcotts are not at fault, this seems like a simple and worthwhile experiment, compared to the packing and schlepping routine. (I can only imagine what it must be like to find and access the Delta freight terminal at Logan. Dulles airport is bad enough.)
