RE: Your best tweaks for fullrange











Aupiho,

It costs approx. $76.50 to buy 14 feet of MagnetShield (@$4.50 per linear foot + $13.50 USPS Priority Mail) from www.lessEMF.com) in order to enclose two pairs of mid-range and woofers each with four layers around the outside and back separated by strips of 1/8" cork to maximize its effectiveness. Such enclosures block much of the 'fringing effect' that causes 25%-30% of the speaker magnetism to escape. Make sure to leave a hole in the back to equalize air pressure or you will throttle the drivers... The large increase in driver and therefore speaker efficiency is proportionately reflected in increased dynamics and slam.

Hopefully these pictures will give you the idea. Don't forget to take the opportunity to re-orient each speaker 180 degrees and demagnetize the brass wood screws before re-installing it with the enclosure.
