Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?

Had a little bit of time this morning to measure speaker response between the foam plug and without. So if you remember I thought the speakers sounded a little better crossing over
higher than expected. Soooooooo.......the response curve was worse below 65hz but smoother above 100hz.
This was just a fast comparison and nothing definitive I.E. Food for thought.

while screwing around the bottom port, I realized the bottom of the speaker rings like crazy
so I'm doing something to fix that.... But every time I look on the inside of the speakers
I get pissed of when I see 2x4's that look about as old as I am.
I also have the rear tweeter, volume control and crossover on the way to rainy SoCal
so that should be fun...🇸🇪

Sorry for the inactivity the the last week, but as any good husband I promised my wife to paint a room and a hallway before Xmas...😜
I did have some time to meditate earlier this morning, and decided to take the project a little further than I originally decided. The rear tweeter will be in this week so hopefully I'll be able to solder up the X-over and make a custom mount to attach it to the speaker. After Christmas I'm taking the speaker apart, see what can be done to stiffen up the sides and 
for the bottom I'm thinking, rubber mass loaded with lead shot-gun pellets for more mass.

When most mechanical changes are made I'm thinking about re-paint it in a BMW M3
metallic blue, And all the metal parts on the stand will be chromed.
Im also going to have my machinist make a low profile swivel mount for the tweeter
so the angle of attack can be changed on a whim.

Anyway that's it for now...🇸🇪

Xover, volume control and speaker attached in a non invasiv way IE. I might install everything inside the cabinet so I have clean looking backside of the speaker and it does look like a science project that went wrong....lol

I will do some listening this evening and evaluate the progress or not.
The foam plugs are a deleted item for now and I will re visit them when all the other 
changes are done.......🇸🇪

It's an hour later.......

I think my jaw is wide agape, why doesnt Ohm do this to their speakers?

Dave Brubeck just left the building, oh my God the changes are dramatic
actually bigger than when I changed the front tweeter.

The first thing was the changes to the imaging, everything is rock solid, the staging spreads out as a semi circle of whipped cream, tasty, sweet and smooth and the odd thing is that suddenly in all this goodness I find the sweet spot wider then I ever had in my house.....remarkable. There's also a snappier, faster retrieval of leading notes, the attack of drums and even the the reed of an Oboe has more there, there, but man drums are incredible... so slammy (if there's such word).  The height of the sound field is closer to
a tall Maggie that the typical point source (Dang).

Seriously my total investment in the project might have been $70 give or take a few.
Time invested a few hours for now, but I'm so excited that the speakers will be pulled apart
asap for more tweaking.....

Back soon for more morsels...🇸🇪

Darn it, Peterr53!  You have really stoked my curiousity.  Not having any of the DIY skills you do (and even if I did, I have no time, anyway), I am searching through my Swiss-cheese of a memory for people I know and trust that can do this mod correctly and affodably.  Just one question:  I really like my Ohm Walsh 2000s way with the upper mids and lower treble - not too hot, but with plenty of fine detail.  In your opinion, does your mod make this range a lot hotter?  I would hate to do this mod and lose the smoothness I enjoy in this part of the band.  Thanks!
