What other response could we expect from Phil?

** A even funnier one ?


But the use of 40mm thick panels with lots of internal bracings mean
enclosures are fairly sonically inert, and not a huge amount of acoustic
energy rattles around inside and spews out through cones, delayed a few
cycles to interfere with front of cone wave propagations.

** ROTFL !!

Having a very stiff enclosure ( eg a concrete pipe) INCREASES the amount of
internal sound reflection. Filling the enclosure with sound absorbent
material is the only fix for the problem.

( Think how a typical bathroom sounds compared with a carpeted loungeroom
room full of furniture and curtains)

Wot a pompous dickhead.
