I stamp a 2.5" wide hole in my fascias for my tweeters (1" domes). In cases where a 1 or 1.5" dome is used I think this gives them room to do their thing without anything vital being grabbed. Ribbons, too. The star shaped surrounds that I have seen encroach more closely to the dome. In this case, I expect it makes more sense. I can't speak for Wilson but I use a very highly absorbent base material to start with. I want customers to hear what I am hearing, first.
I posted a note from a member/customer in The Critic's Circle today. And, another customer has replied, "I can't walk past my listening room without being pulled in". I know what he means. jim
