Hi Ian,
Rather than 'stuffing' I have used quilting in 25mm thick blankets therefore I have been able to apply to the inside faces and as gravity drop acoustic curtains directly behind the driver. As a mass/ volume I would estimate that I have now only 20-25% of the original.
These speakers are now sounding very good indeed. Speakers, as we all know, are highly subjective and personal. The DM70 are currently in a room with my Magneplanars and Apogees and are more than holding their own.
Best regards, Martin
