    where is "Aquaplas" available?

    was the first sweet in the mid band sounded like it

      Sounded like what? I think you might be hearing some artifacts from either my phone's camera mic or some crackling from my sweep generator. At the test voltage of 1 watt, the SPL is about 110+dB, so the mic is getting a bit stressed and the compressor/limiter is kicking in.

    How did you apply the aquaplas?

    • @edgewound

      Very carefully. Measured for before and after moving mass. Apply...allow to dry...weigh for added mass. It's a pretty delicate proprietary process.

      Did you use a primer? Did you use a brush? How has it lasted?

    It looks like it is applied much thicker than the SL diaphragms

      I also apply it to the suspension. Less than a gram of added mass. I blew compressed air to redistribute some of the Aquaplas, so it gave the wavy, textured impression.

    You'r changing it's caracteristics. You want to avoid those harsh midds, go for metalic horn, damped with bitum. It will calm those harsh midds & have better highs at 12khz

    • @edgewound

      You're correct. The characteristics of the harsh secondary harmonics are greatly reduced by the damping of the Aquaplas.

      @@obiessen JBL, nor any other manufacturer of compression drivers publish Thiele-Small parameters. I'm curious from where your data come. BTW...Meyer Sound dampened the metal surrounds of JBL diaphragms with a coating to dampen resonances...distortion.

      You are free to think what you will. The response is improved. Secondary resonances damped.
