    Original 4343 have no bracing to connect front panel to back panel? I would add a couple of "column".

    Ah, drinking and JBL four ways.... There isn't anything much better than that!
    Enjoying your build, great work.

    Have you never been to a Lowe's or a Home Depot?

    Or are you just looking for a small quantity? A cheap roll will fill several large cabinets. Get craft-faced and simply rip off the paper.

    They are too thick and also shed. Look for 1" non-backed ducting insulation.

    You can search the forum for Wrapon or Wrap-on.

    What's shown is probably for 6-inch stud walls on 16-inch centers. You can find it it different thicknesses for 2x4 studs or larger blanket rolls for attic insulation. I like the open aspect of the roll rather than the closed-face of others. I always felt the main reason for insulation blankets in speakers was to effectively increase the volume of the enclosure through the insulation. Seems to me a more rigid blanket defeats the purpose. Plus, what I've always used matched what was already in the C37 factory cabinets, so I figured that should work best.
