In Reply to: Felt material around tweeters, why not in more speakers? posted by Sean H on July 29, 2002 at 09:53:52:
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.
