    Agreed; all great mods. My personal favorites are DK's dreadnaught and the wealth of his knowledge that he so kindly shared.

    How did I skip the Dreadnought? I blame 5:30am and not enough coffee..🤣

    Edit:

    Joe’s Clamp
    Rings
    Gimpods Boards
    Rob’s Tweeter Bezels
    Dreadnought

    Probably my top 5 of what’s came out of this forum. Am I missing something?

    VR3’s Crossover Work stands on its own, each piece is a work of art.

    Don't forget dynamatting the driver baskets and adding bh5.

    Focus rings and phase plugs B)

    I have 10 plates left over from this run if anyone still needs some.
    I modded a set to take a 28mm dome and will experiment with those soon also.

    Ok well we all know that I am a little bit crazy and I don't have any actual evidence but I do think that I notice an improvement in the over all sound of the 2b's after installing Rob's bezels.
    Either way after installing them there is no way I would want those darn plastic ones. I mean they sent right in when you crank down on the screw! And that is a small screw. They can even be seen through the grill! They look, feel and sound better to me. I am glad not to have that plastic anymore. Just always made those replacement tweeters seem cheap to me. Never liked the look after that plastic bent. Thanks a million @xschop. I feel like a millionaire!

    No disagreement here!

    If I torqued too much or too little, that original -194 I designed them from would make the nastiest sound.

    I think this is what is known as a Mandela effect?

    I had to super glue 2 ss washers under each screw hole to get them air tight enough yet not deform or sizzle on certain frequencies.

    That's quality manufacturing.

    Yea, I'm not sure why the made the stand off shorter in the RD-0xxx series, makes no sense.

    I've had other projects going on.

    Tools were everywhere on the floor. Kind of congested.

    I put in a new transmission in my Toro recycler personal pace mower, and it is DEFECTIVE. :s I told them about it, and they said to return it free of charge for review. I ordered another one, and it is arriving today. :) I hope I don't feel a momentary stoppage point like I did with the other one. It was a soft stoppage, so I thought the 190cc motor would overcome it, but it didn't. It SUCKED. The left tire would propel, but that was it. I took the geared wheel off and put a free-rolling wheel on, and the mower was 90% or more better, almost like new. I could pull it back EASY. The new trans wouldn't let the left tire roll back or turn at a different rate than the right.

    I also had my F150 4-shocks replacement project underway. That entailed one missing the bushings and a replacement shock waiting period for a few days too.

    When this is done, or not, I should be replacing those bezels soon.

    I have to check on my NAD C370 or (372?) int. amp, Newform speakers, and the wires connected to them on the speaker B connection. My Polk SDA-SRS2s are on speaker A, and they work fine. B) They're still AWESOME sounding! <3

    I heard a crackling sound from the Left Newform speaker a few months ago. The Bass cut out then. Then later, the sound cut out completely on the left. I'll check that out at the same time. :)
