RE: Your best tweaks for fullrange

moray james:
I bond about a 1/4" layer of F-11 on the inside of the baskets on top of the CL material, etc, etc.

I reported earlier that I'd fitted CL damping to my drive units. Well, so I had but, as it turns out, to speakers I sold some ten years ago. As the frame on my "newer" drivers is made of diecast aluminium and as the arms are short, I'd not bothered this time round.

So, this afternoon and in light of your tip, I fitted as many strips of Dynamat equivalent as I comfortably squeeze onto to the frame and put 1/8" (3 mm) wool felt on top where appropriate.

Yes, it's made a very worthwhile improvement - smoother sound, more of that "in the room" feel. I don't think I'm finished yet but it's been a good start. Many thanks to all for the ideas.

Dave
