I, too, am working on my Type E2 crossovers. 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 44 Posted December 12, 2020 I just bought a pair of Heresy speakers from 1983. Step one, what are the stiffening mods? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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