Re: How about using lead shots ?

203.110.0.197

Hi there,

Eli's suggestion about the Deflex panels is a good idea. I know of friends that have used the Deflex panels with good results.

Alternatively, you could consider using lead shots (ther are the pallets nomally used in shotgun cartridges), wrapped in ladies stockings (select the colour to suit your spkrs' cabinet finish !), take up the slack and tie the open end. Next, you hand mould/shape the bundle of lead shots into a round saucer shape ... make up 2 "bundles". Place each bundle on top of each of your speakers cabinet. The the non-resonant property of the lead shorts coupled with the inherent mass loading from the weight, should help to dampen some of the resonance persisting in the 602s. If you wish, you could try placing a rubber mat between the cabinet and the lead shots ... pc mouse pads comes to mind. Oh, BTW, remember to wash your hands thoroughly after handling the lead shots ...

Regards, Darryl.
