Cheap tweak from Virtual Dynamics:

Interesting thought, I don't doubt you. All materials have a sound and brass is definitely more friendly than steel.

Maybe I should contact the tech guys in Denmark for advise, the same ones I spoke with when I redesigned the crossover.

"I love cheap tweaks that have potential to improve sound."
Have you heard of EnABL?

Can't beat $26.00

Cdc,
Very interesting. I remember a fellow writing in Audio Amateur some years back about gluing felt strips on the face of a cone driver with the idea of breaking up standing waves and how well he thought that worked. If I decide to EnABL my drivers I will use the AVM acoustic paint instead of the paint sold in the kit. Tom

Hi Tom,
One guy used toothpaste on his Jordan's as a reversible experiment. Someone else used Post-It's!

I don't know why the links look so funny but they work.
