prof - black paint is typically carbon pigment, which is light-weight as pigments go.

The issue would be added mass proportional to the extant moving mass. I suspect that in a woofer or midrange, the added mass would be functionally inconsequential, but in a tweeter it might matter.

I'm interested enough to try a light misting coat on my CS1.6 woofers. I can sweep before and after and compare output including all harmonics and time domain performance.

I'll use lacquer so I can wipe it off if necessary.

Tom,

That would be a really cool experiment.!  I'd like to read about the results.

ydjames - I had seen the video before your notice, and didn't see the 3.7s.

But, George Cardas is said to have proclaimed the CS3.7 to be the best sound he ever heard at a show when it was introduced.

It was cool to see a CS3.7 at the bottom of the screen at 19:04 - 19:08 in Darko's Cardas video.
