Thank you for your informed response! Yes, I know what you mean about upgrade paths and tweeking! This is what lead me to tubes and altec in the first place, the simplicity of vintage listening. With time, the tweek bug has resurfaced again. I am definately going to try your methods to improvr these great horns. I noticed differences in my two sets of 511bs... My "nice" set is made such that it appears the vanes are split, but have some rubbery feeling stuff inthere. on my other set, they are more solid metal through and through. Do you think I need to cut the ones with the rubbery stuff in the gap, or only cut the all metal ones? I hope this makes sense, I just reread and I probably could have put it better, hope you followed this.Russellc
