I have heard of people physically breaking the bell of their 811's and 511's and as crazy as that sounded, I'm sure it works to de-stress the structure and prevent it from ringing. It makes sense that cutting the cross-members would do this too. Reducing the tension in the structure would lower its resonant frequency, ideally putting it below the passband.
