With those woofers i´d really opt to go without grilles ( says the guy who usually doesn´t like his speakers sans grilles.). Hope You can get the sonic problem fixed... Agreed, that's why I want to try and get some removable ones made up. Best of both worlds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickShrimpton Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 9.7.2021 Update Over the holiday weekend I made some progress. Installed the new Solen 2.0 uF caps. Wired the Type C crossover to the Type E. Sealed the front motor board, rear panel and all drivers with foam gasketing tape. Lined and stuffed the cabinet with batts of wool insulation. Sound quality has now improved substantially! Most notably is the low end, it is tight and accurate. In comparing these H700's to my other pair of Heresy's these now seem to dig a bit deeper in the bass department. The other huge takeaway is that the sound transparency is back, no longer do I feel the speakers are shouting at me from their locations. As the caps are breaking in the sound keeps getting better and the soundstage wider. Overall I am more than happy with the results. Next step will be the cosmetic process but I'm in no rush to get that complete. For now I'll keep listening to these and enjoying them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
