Hello all.

I'm new here, and I'm building a set of 4 pi speakers. I have not yet ordered the crossovers and waveguides from Wayne, but I have sourced the JBL2226 woofers and DE250's.

I had a question about the insulation inside them. Must it be R-13 fiberglass batt?

I have a plethora of both 2' egg crate foam and also 2" Dow Corning 703 Rigid insulation, so I wish these could be used as an alternative.

But I have searched the FAQ's EDIT- "and found the answer at the very bottom of "miscellaneous".

Looks like fiberglass batt is the only option. Sad

That's right. R13 is your best choice.
