Hi Mark,,nice to see you..
I accidentally applied your diffraction foams to my speakers this weekend.
It's a bit embarrassing, but I had no clear memory of how they would keep applied to the speakers,
so I had a vague idea I would either have to take the screws out and kind of washer hold them or some light adhesive or similar.
Either way, on the weekend I decided to try how they look on the speaker at all, held them there with a gentle push
and was quite astonished they just stayed there, ultralight as they are, grabbing hold just from the scews outer diameters.
Applied in like 20 seconds...and the same moment the speakers turned their focus to 'more precise'
Not a total sound revolution,,,but an effect by FAR more obvious than I had expected it to be.
It's a bit of an effect like if you haven't had new glasses since 10 years & your dioptrine has faded unnoticed a bit.
Without having obviously missed anything, you're astonished how clear and sharp everything looks once the new glasses are there.
I'm very pleased & haven't heard them that good up to now.
It's in fact rediculous they lay in the package that long bc I imagined it would require screwing or glueing in some way,
but such is life sometimes..
They sound a tad more smeared w/o the diffractions,
still excellent on a total scale of course..but with them on, absolutely obvious quite a little bit better.
Great find & at the level the NS are on, a no brainer in vfm. Thanks a lot !
I'd like to try your coupling method, perhaps you can put me a short pm about it?
And in medium term I'm also tempted to try your stands.
Those are handicraft and as such will ask and deserve a certain adequate equivalent in pay.
I admit my initial reaction to your suggestion was some: 'naah, mine are certainly ok enough'
But well, at a second thought...they may still be a compromise, and I don't yet know by how much.
And at the level the NS are already considering vfm in s/h terms, getting the most out of them
does not necessarily have to be cheap to be stilll very worthwhile.
It would be nice if you could put me a short pm about your coupling method
& also how much I'd have to calculate for the stands you designed.
Kind regards from here..
