How To Combat Speaker Cabinet Resonances

#diyaudio #PartsExpress
In this video I talk about some of the methods that I have used to reduce cabinet resonances. If your speakers are cheaply constructed like my Dayton Audio T652, then more than likely the cabinets are resonating and coloring the sound. The two methods that I like to use involve laminating pieces of MDF inside the cabinet walls and the other is using a peel and stick material made out of butyl rubber. I'm hoping other viewers will list their methods as well since there are many ways to go about this.

Below are some of the damping materials that I like to use:
