It DOES tamp down ringing

If you're going to do something at least do it right. I know you've seen plenty of mod threads here, so no excuses.Political Correctness'.........defined

Wahhhh -
Trey is still waiting for some components from Great Britain.
Can't wait to hear what the finished product sounds like from @VR3 -
I'll just keep slugging away until then. More glue to do
-
What size are the bolts, plates and washers that hold the dreadnought transformer in place?
-
Can someone PLEASE tell me what size the bolt is that holds the dreadnought transformer to the case? I need to get one before they start shipping in a couple of weeks. Also the plate that goes on top of it.

Will this work properly for the drivers and passive radiator?
-
I could clearly see when I was trying this original Dynamat that it was so old that the adhesive really wasn't sticking very well anymore. As you can see above the pieces that I cut and stuck to the midwoofers have been falling off. Oh well as much as I hate to admit it @F1nut was right once again dammit!! -

Okay what about this?
I'm not trying to completely cover the outside of the speaker baskets like most on here would do. Again I know from my own experience what F1nut in another thread said about only needing to use a little bit. -
That's only a 10" square sheet, not nearly enough.
I've purchased from this seller on eBay, hookedontronics. Check out what deals they have.Political Correctness'.........defined

Thanks @F1nut
Found them
If I'm not covering the entire woofer basket and only using a couple of patches per driver. How much would I need then? -
The wedge pack is all you should need. You should have some left for other projects.2 Channel

If you haven't done your dreadnought box yet you might as well get enough for it.

Well again you don't have to cover the entire inside of it. A patch on each wall should be more than enough. It just looks good in pics when you overdo it by covering everything.

Okay just bought one from those guys
