And here is an image showing the driver in the mounting plate (still unable to upload the images; can only include them as attachments. Also, I have to do this one image per post).

Threading on the S2 does not go all the way to the tip of the driver, hence, using of an adaptor made from material having a thickness greater then 10mm is a waste. In the attached image, the shiney ring on the driver's "nose" is the part that has no threading. It is slightly smaller than the threaded part. If having horns machined from a hard material, it would be smart to make use this feature as originally intended; that is to say, as a centering aid.
