Mariusz_ Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) I am new to old loudspeakers Klipsch world - as I bought KG 3.5 and Tangent 400 (which are not so easy to get in Europe). When I compared KG and Tangent cabinets I noticed that Tangent was made with less dense MDF. And as a result it resonates and plays itself a bit - one can hear it while putting an ear on cabinet of the playing loudspeaker. I consider of making completely new heavy cabinet for these suberb set of drivers but maybe insulation would be enough? What do you think about putting on inside walls an adhesive rubber (bituminous) mat (about 5mm thick)? Thanks in advance, Mariusz Edited February 24, 2015 by mwnuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Mariusz, welcome to the forums, The Tangent 400 is a wonderful speaker, but was originally sold through military exchanges. It has the exact same components inside as the Heresy II. The Tangent 400, though, is a larger cabinet and ported, giving it a lower bass response. A newer, sturdier cabinet would indeed be better, but removing the woofer and checking all the seams to make sure the joints in the present cabinet are solid would suffice for now.
