Bill Fitzmaurice Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 If there's only a capacitor it's safe to just disconnect the tweeter. If there's a coil as well it's not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassmanPaul Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Why not diagnose what the problem actually is before pulling the tweeter and finding the chuff still there. Remember pulling it too often makes you go blind! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassmanPaul Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 If it's physically broken then that's another matter. Why not just replace the horn? Resale would be better that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Fitzmaurice Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 The best material is rigid Type 700 fiberglass boards, but it's not easy to come by. Next best are open cell foam and polyester batts. Fiberglass blankets, as used in home insulation, doesn't work as well, and it fractures easily. I never use it. Rockwool works well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Fitzmaurice Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 You could leave it in the case, but then it's probably thicker than you need. My wife also collected pillows, and bowls, and umbrellas, and more shoes than a centipede could make use of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a straightforward way to work out how much wadding a cab needs, or is it a case of suck it and see? Is it best to allow for the wadding when calculating cab volumes? Thanks.

You can model the effect on the lows in WinISD 0.7 by changing the Qa value. The effect on the mids and highs is fully reached with only an inch or two. Damping does not occupy acoustic volume, so you don't compensate for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
