Re: Felt material around tweeters, why not in more speakers?

146.74.1.99

I bought a used pair of Mirage SM-1's several months back. Felt rings were used around the tweeters to reduce "defraction" is what the literature said. Problem was only one tweeter had the felt and the other had fallen off and lost. To my ears the one speaker with the felt ring around the tweeter definitely sounded smoother and more focused. I tried findig a source for 1/4" thick felt to make another ring but was unsuccessful. Anybody know where to get some? The felt was similar to that of chalk board eraser but softer.
