I really could not hear any difference in the sound.....I even walked back and forth from speaker to speaker trying to detect any sonic changes....none...hhhhmmmm
I then put the cap on my other speakers and no change in sound.....nothing...went outside without the cap, its snowing :eek: 3 inches so far.. head got wet....put cap on my head...went outside..my head stayed dry....yes I would say the the cap is good in some situations;)

    It's the color of the cap.

    Try turing the brim toward the south. That way you will get full signal strength.

    You have to use a cap dipped in mercury first.

    Tinfoil. You need Tinfoil.
    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D

    If you didn't notice a difference, I would try the cap backwards and then sideways.

    Until you've tried the cap, you don't know nothing!

    Wait a minute, that's not gonna work here.

    Good advice above from some trusted members. If replacing / upgrading the cap(s) doesn't work, tweak them with a crossover.

    On second thought, this may work too.
