You needed a lot of space and good room acoustics to get the best out of
them.

Bass-reflex looks good on paper but sounds horrible. The human ear
hears the 6dB/octave roll off as 'natural' but with an unnatural 'honk'
superimpose on it. Bass transients are coloured by the honk and give
hang-over effects.
It may not matter for synthetic pop music, but bass-reflex speakers can
give misleading results if they are used for monitoring acoustic music
recordings.
