Great write-up. Thank you for the useful link!
"There is much disagreement as to whether vented boxes should have damping material or not. My view is that it's essential, because without it there will be excessive upper bass and midrange energy bouncing around inside the cabinet. This can often be heard through the vent, so if you can hear anything that isn't at the tuned frequency coming out of a vent, the cabinet needs damping."The Thrifty Setups in Mah House Big thrifty stereo in the basement w/ my custom SDA-1C (built with help from kind forum members) * Beautiful 1966 MCM GE console upgraded w/ Bluetooth, Dual turntable, and Paradigm speakers in family room * Swanky 1980 Realistic system and great TEAC eq with dancing colored lights in the living room * custom 5B on a system for my Dad * Ye Olde college stereo in the garage -
Never seen a quality speaker without some dampening inside- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit.
