    Rick Cobb

    Yes, he is THE guy. There are differences in foam available.

    I have used several from him, including the 116H...and they work, and sound great.

    I don't think one could "improve" one of the best woofers ever made for deep bass, or a cabinet built by JBL. If you want to improve the BX63 crossovers that go with them, PM me, I have done several,...
