with the bass and I needed to investigate further. The first thing was a monstrous air leak at the Left speaker mounting plate. This was fixed with a simple liberal helping of high viscous super glue.....
At this point I would have thought the problem would have been fixed, so I ran frequency sweep and found a weird hump at the lower frequencies on the Right speaker.....what the heck could it be?
Fast forward to this afternoon and after some inspection I found that the bass port tube had dislodged it self. Good and bad I guess, but I did get a chance to look at the innards of a 2/2000.....hehehe
5/8" particle board on the sides and bottom panel. As for bracing
it had 2 fir braces that looked more as holders for the stuffing then bracing. Two third of the bottom cavity was devoid of anything.
If Tate wants me to fix the tube I'll be happy too.
So back to the 4/5000...
I decided to remove the bottom panel take out everything and start over. first I need to dampen the wall of the cabinet in a proper way,
I will most likely use 1/4" aluminum, noise dampening sheeting and
wool stuffening. Bracing will be either Some mdf/ aluminum mix or
carbon fiber profiles available to me. I figured I have so much time invested why not do it right.....yeehaw 🇸🇪
