I though I was so clever using silicon to seal my cabinets. This is what remains after two hours of effort to remove the drivers from the cabinets.IMG_5660.jpg
Nooooo, though you won't be needing them anywayI always use either felt or some kind of thin closed cell foam to seal drivers to enclosures. Felt is best as there is no tendency to grip between the two what so ever
Come on Dave, if I'm the only one waiting for this I'll eat my benny hat!
Get em together brother![]()

A review of the sound next.
I can say my vinyl collection has new life. The dynamics and drive from these Speakers is truly remarkable, you don't just hear the music, you feel the music entering the room.
Ahhhh, at last we get to the good bitWell done Dave
