Thanks for the advice all. Good idea about the spades but I think doing away with them altogether is the route I'll go. Its not that I'm uncomfortable with undertaking the work for bracing, I just don't want to reduce the sensitivity by any amount as im about to purchase a Transcendent Sound Mini Beast and at 4 wpc I need all the help I can get in that dept. Am I right in thinking that's the effect bracing has? Or is that when a cab has been over braced? Happy Easter all. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk
