I wrapped my red speaker's when we decorated, used the 3m stuff, it's OK... Nice gloss, now in white...

Px4 and px25 are my favourites, but I have a pair of stc 4300a, which sound better than most 300b that they have been pitched against

Looking forwards to it Ray, and the wam show the weekend after, could do to start a list of attendees and this thread is fine for that..
So off we go....

Choice words are quickly forgotten ray..

Thanks Steve, there are a few things there and I think you have some misconceptions. I'm no expert on fires, my knwledge is what I learned when I had fire marshall and building incident manager responsibilities. My understanding is that the oxygen is part of the fuel, it is mixed in quantities that...

Picked this up from the net.. How hot do lithium battery fires burn? 3632 degrees Fahrenheit Fire ignition establishes that the cathode of the battery can catch fire. The burning lithium creates a metal fire existing at temperatures of 2,000 degrees Celsius/3632 degrees Fahrenheit. Attempting to dou...

I think Phil's answered your miss understanding of my point ray, Yes, but Oxygen isn't the fuel. But my confusion was about the battery 'magic'. Sorry Ray, I'll try and explain myself better My understanding is that the oxygen is part of the fuel, it is mixed in quantities that will then ignite. I ...

Thats the thing with internal combustion engines, they only carry part of the fuel needed, the other part comes from the atmosphere. I am not a chemist, but I think that's true for battery fires as well, The energy to get it going may come from the chemical energy stored in the battery that wants t...

My understanding is with batteries there's no triangle just the battery... It must be magic then? Very nearly ray.. but worth looking up. Thats the thing with internal combustion engines, they only carry part of the fuel needed, the other part comes from the atmosphere. There's quite an issue in Ch...

As would anything else that consitutes 'fuel' in the traditional 'Heat/Oxygen/Fuel' triangle.

I think my preference in presentation is similar to your preference, but I'm not sure damping is the deciding factor in quality. There is a level of self damping in drivers that seems preferable to me. Self damping and acceleration tend to go hand in hand. My preference is that type of driver, one t...
