bkeske, everything you did I could have told you ahead of time what would and did happen. So spare yourself more wasted effort- forget about sorbo under the speakers. All that will do is make them sound all sucky and dull and not do anything to he...

Okay bkeske now where were we? Oh yeah, vibration control. Something few understand well. Be careful with some of the advice above.Trying to advise sight-unseen is low-probability at best. Like the woofer flutter situation. If I was there to see a... 
Directionality, Fuses, Demagnetizing, Warm-up: Tweaks Matter!
The replacement for the blown Blue Quantum Fuse came the other day. Waited a day before using in order to x-ray and see what's inside. The one that was blown was supposed to have been slo-blo but the wire inside was thin and looked exactly like ev...
