    I am fiddling around with some speaker mods and have looked at lots of things.
    I see quite a few different types and styles of dampening agents used inside the cabinets...mostly some type of foam though.

    I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion about the type and style of foam dampener I should use inside the speaker cabinet?

    If you have specifics that would be great.
    Thanks and have a great day.

    Go to GR-Research.com and look at their "no rez" product. Not an endorsement. Looks good though.

    Google is your friend on this, different materials tend to influence different frequencies and some products are actually more suited for pillow stuffing, than speaker lining.

    Might want to check things out over at the TechTalk (parts-express.com) forum.

    Pillow or mattress stuffing for acoustic suspension enclosures.
    Egg-crate foam panels for vented enclosures.

    Damping, not dampening.

    Unless you're using water that is.

    Thanks, now if you can convince my auto correct features to know my intent and not change words as I type...er, fumble along, it would be great.

    I try, I really do...but I mess up.
