Putting weights on speakers?


IME, putting 20 lb ankle weights on my 150 lb speakers greatly tightened and improved the bass and sound overall. Only problem is that the wife hates it...

I put 75 pounds of concrete on top of my Mission Cyrus 30 pounds speakers....With great success....

My wife dont have access to my audio room and dont want to either.... :)
I'd be interested to know what speakers this works on.

I've always assumed this had to do with the woofer rocking the cabinet back and forth, but didn't think a 150 lb speaker would have this effect. 

OP:  What speakers are you using??
Wow, I actually thought of putting more weight on them.
It seems the speaker weight is very significant. Wish I had a dedicated audio room but we both listen and enjoy. I just put on the Mad Max soundtrack and after about 5 minutes Nina ran in from another part of the house and demanded I take it off. I don’t blame her. WAF has always been a factor to consider. Especially since she is pretty agreeable to my spending thousands on my “addiction”.
But, mostly, she comes to quickly appreciate and enjoy. I do still love it when she comes over and picks up the record cover to read!
I am using Tetra 606s. It is especially convenient that they are open baffle on the mid and tweeter and have a separate bass cabinet behind. So I am able to put the weight on the back of the speaker. Much nicer than putting weights on the top of a regular speaker.
But maybe I can find a weight that is more attractive than an ankle weight to increase the amount of weight.
