2121H Dust cap issue fixed: improvement
Hi all,
Just thought I'd share this discovery:
The other day I noticed the dust caps on the midbass drivers (2121h) of my 4343 had started to seperate from the cone and were no longer sealed to the cone. There was a gap of 3mm in some place. So I glued them back in place and made sure the cap was sealed to the cone all the way around.
Well i may be going crazy but after the fix i believe I noticed a bit of an improvement in mid bass punch midbass tightness and overall imaging.
The only thing I can imagine is that the dust cap forms part of the acoustic seal of the driver to the dogbox. I'm not sure if this is the case, but if it is it may explain the perceived improvement. Or perhaps improved the rigidity of the cone.
Anyway check those inverted dust caps on your drivers.
Thanks.
