I noticed a funny scratching sound that is most evident when electric guitars are playing, I'm really concerned about it. The diaphrams of all four of my compression drivers have been removed since I got them for one reason or another. I'm worried that I didn't properly align the voice coil in the magnetic gap when I re-assembled them. They sound largely okay, but I'm worried about this fuzziness!!! Perhaps it is in fact just my cheapy cardboard horn.This funny little experiment was a bad reminder of the fact that I am not the most fond of these compression drivers... They're pretty good, but I find they just completely bite my ear off. This might be in the implimentation - the last speakers I built had insufficient padding on the tweeter to match with the woofer, resutling in a really bright speaker... Perhaps when I actaully get the proper network in place to tame these beasts, I'll be more happy.
This time of year ain't the greatest for money... Christmas, various bills due... blah *rips hair out*
