Post Subject: But what of HF membranes?Posted by Paul S on: 10/23/2006
Your explanations make it fairly easy to understand both the problem and conceptual solution in your terms. It's the actual, mechanical solution that I have trouble with.
Unless you can somehow alter/vary the application index of this process I have no idea how it can apply equally to the heaviest woofers and the lightest "super" tweeters, some of which weigh almost nothing, by critical design.
Not only that, but consider that although all membranes suffer from the same problem in the generic sense, the frequencies in question will vary according to a host of accountable and practically-unaccountable factors.
And before you say that it is not frequency dependent, please just start with the opposite ends of the audible spectrum.
If I understand what you are doing - at all - then it may be that the best use of this would be as a part of the manufacturing process, where the mass and the very nature of your "friendly", EnABL-ed material could be part of the driver's design.
Again, not to cry foul, but it should be obvious that I do not understand how this process could entirely work in practice.
As you can see from my header, I am in the San Diego area.
