I intentionally avoided your thread, yet you seek me out and post insults here in response to a casual reference in an unrelated thread. Please stop stalking me.

Yes, I make "pontifications" based on "borrowed opinions and intellectual assumptions," otherwise known as science. You should try learning some. I am well aware that it cannot explain everything, especially related to human perception, but I don't need to mix bleach and ammonia in my kitchen sink to know that it can kill me.

Excess heat kills voice coils. Enclosing a large mass of metal that typically helps dissipate that heat might cause failure. If warning people about that is risk-averse, it is hardly hysterical. The value of a tweak does not depend on how much risk is involved in implementing it, although, based on some of your statements, it might seem so. If people want to risk destroying their speakers in order to put their stereo "on steroids," as you described it, I pity them. I thought they at least deserved a warning because you again neglected to inform them of any possible negative consequences of your "experiment."

I never wrote that your tweak isn't effective. Whether or not it actually improves the sound is another issue. Did you know that a driver is designed to have a certain amount of magnetic dissipation, a certain motor strength, and has a particular efficiency as a result? If, in fact, your tweak does have any real effect other than psychological, it is probably altering the efficiency of your drivers and changing their response in relation to one another, possibly altering the harmonious balance implemented in their crossover by a knowledgeable designer. But don't let anyone's knowledge interfere with your tweak fest.
