Are my gaskets good?

When I first got here I bought brgman's gaskets for my SDA 2a's. Today I am doing Larrys rings and JB weld. Dynamat is also on the list.

The JB weld is self defense in hopes the speakers survive my upcoming move. This will make the third time I have been in these cabinets.

Are my gaskets still good if not torn?

    Yes, if they are not torn they should be fine. More so after you install Larry's rings. No worries.

    Also, I would still lay the speakers on their backs when you move them. Always the safest way to transport them even with JB Weld.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I am going to ask the movers to be careful. I have my network, 3d printer and a photo capable 60" roll fed plotter.

    I like my speakers a whole bunch but for cash value they are at the bottom of the list.

    I have over $6,000 in printing supplies to be climate controlled at all costs.

    I knew I had read that gaskets if not torn were good to go. Thank you for confirming
