First I'll try adding a p-trap to the squawker to try to tame the massive hump around 10.5 kHz. Hopefully that will reduce some of the top-end brightness.

Pondoro Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I just bought a pair of Heresy speakers from 1983. Step one, what are the stiffening mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can keep the original and replace it with some 3/4 inch ply, or mount a strip diagonally to stop the vibration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
