Meadowlark Swifts? I am thinking of applying felt around the tweeters, changing the internal cabling or maybe upgrading the crossover components. Has anyone done any or all of these, or any other good tweaks to these speakers?
need more info what kind of speakers are they and what type of sound are you looking to get.Also do you have the amp, wire,ect to be able to tell the upgrade?
I haven't but I'd treat my sidewalls before wholesale radiation treatment with felt donuts. You might NOT want to affect the power response of your tweeter just yet. If the tweeter high-pass is a crap capacitor than playing with better ones, or adding a small great bypass is usually a worthwhile experiment. You should hear differences. Similarly, if you fingd small iron-core inductors in the woofer's low-pass, swapping them for large-gauge air core can definitely improve dynamics and lower distortion due to lack of early saturation. Have fun.
The Swifts are a nice sounding speaker and for the money a great speaker. What are you seeking to accomplish with the mod? Meadowlark offered upgrades to all their previous speakers. So, yes, you can improve the quality of the internal wiring and cross-over. But, again, what do you want to accomplish? Felt rings on a Meadowlark tweeter is not necessary.
