My speakers are these Peter Comeau towers. Loosely described as "aperiodics" brecause they were originally inspired by the Dynaco A25 but inside a sealed box/bubble consisting basically of two compartments, both sealed to the exterior with a communicating "aperiodic port between them. So presumably any woofer movements are limited first by compression of the air in compartment 1, thanks to to the "stiff" port and then also by the resistance to be compressed of thevolume of air in the 2nd compartment.
I have no desire to understand what´s happening but in practise the woofers are virtually motionless (1mm at most) during all sorts of music beit Reggae or symphonic so how can it produce any bass at all ?
Just wondering if a 2nd resistive port say in the base of the towers could help the bass go lower.
Question 2 : Given its importance Is there a practical way to check that my towers are indeed sealed around the drivers - I used draught excluder to make up my gaskets for the drivers. Should I reinforce these with a sealant of any sort ?
