thing again, since I had a rehearsal canceled for fear of 1/4th inch of snow. Stuff like that can shut down the Beltway. Anyhow, I treated one of the two Seas CA15 woofers I use in my CA0W1 2-way, and Jim's Song Tower. That was after I listened to them untreated, running full range in the CA0W1 cabinets. The CA15 is an exceptionally smooth unit with no breakup to speak of, so the full-range sound is very uncolored. I used my remote-controlled A-B switch box and the CD used at the 2007 Iowa DIY, which has a wide range of selections, rock, classical, gospel, jazz--just about everything except heavy metal. I couldn't hear any difference between the untreated speakers. I then wrapped clay around all of the ribs and rings on one of the CA15's, and also put a heavy wad on the rim, which acted as an extra gasket. The CA15 has a heavy metal cast frame to start with, so it's not like I was damping down a flimsy stamped job. I listened again carefully, over and over, and I honestly didn't hear any difference. I switched over to an HT2 I had hooked up, and it sounded a lot better. But the two CA15's--dead ringers (or non-ringers) as far as I could tell. I did this once before with the smaller version of the CA15's--CA12's. I thought I did hear a difference then, but I was using open backed cabinets stuffed with poly fill. It could be that the clay was reducing the back wave a little, and that's why the treated woofer seemed to have a little more presence. But there's no doubt about the CA15's--the clay didn't make any difference. I was disappointed, because I'm always looking for a cheap upgrade. Dang.
