[quote author="Flatpicker"][quote author="Gus"]...I hope some people try this and report back. I am aware that I might have made the capsule worse and am fooling myself because I did this.[/quote]I have too many chores in front of me to get to it this weekend. :sad:
I told Marik about it and he said he had actually been considering the same thing - I told him you guys just think too much alike! Anyway, he was going to give it a try, so hopefully he?ll be jumping in shortly...[/quote]
Hey guys, sorry couldn't come earlier--had terrible hangover after a bottle of Grey Goose last night--couldn't think whole day.
Increase of acoustical resistance flattens the frequency responce of the capsule, but also, increases noise (as a result of acoustical resistance), and reduces sensitivity. The interesting thing is that decrease of acoustical resistance (like in Gus' case), due to less dampening, should boost midrange, and this might be a subjective reason (but also, might be not)why it sounds 'better'. Gus, did you make any frequency response measurements?
I gotta try it myself. I actually was thinking also of playing with different thikness of spacers here.
