I have found that the sound is further improved by
(1) Painting the inside of the brass fixture a dark Chinese red (Sherwin Williams #3604). Adding a bit of titanium white, readily available at art supply stores, can help to tame overly aggressive tweeters.
(2) Making three small (~2.5mm) parallel scratches in the brass on the lower edge of the fixture in a direction oriented toward the mouth of the Chi. Consult any reputable Feng Shui practitioner for assistance. The effect on the lower midrange is simply phenomenal.
