Very interesting use of foam to help prevent “beaming” of speakers.

That looks easy enough. I worried about two things. Getting the right weight of foam and if the result will only be muddled. I know what the sound becomes slightly clearer on normal hifi speakers if the very thinn cover is removed. I am guessing this is only for those who normally eq’s out the guitars high freq in the mix anyway.

this looks cool, but seems like the exact opposite idea from ted weber’s “beam blockers.” who is right?

It looks like it would work. I am very happy with my Weber Beam Blockers.
