Plastic ring over tweeter opinion


I was looking at the Mapleshade Audio website and they recommend:

"Remove your speaker's cloth or foam grill. Snip off any plastic phase ring in front of the tweeter. You'll hear as much as a 100% improvement in treble."

I wonder what members think of this "tweek"...it seems rather irreversible.

You lost me at "as much as a 100% improvement in treble". Now how exactly did they quantify this benefit? What is this supposed to sound like? Also what is a plastic phase ring? I've seen some tweeters that have a plastic strip or series of strips which may help prevent damage but that wouldn't effect the phase of the driver. Smells like BS to me.
