I was ruminating about everything wrong with Infinity's approach concerning the SM series.
I have a pair of SM-152 speakers, the dual midrange, polycell tweet, 15'' woofer set that seemingly everyone hates.
I cannot disagree. It was a low quality offering from an otherwise great manufacturer.
My challenge - Since Zilch isn't here, who of you guys can think of a way to get better sound from these? I've braced the cabs, added some stuffing, but haven't done much else. These changes DID help.
I'm talking ANY DAMN THING goes. Since you cannot give these things away, could anyone come up with some implementation for the drivers?
Open baffle?
Some type of way of time-aligning? I'm thinking perhaps two square cutouts around the woofer to bring it out, and one for mids, then none for tweeters, a poor man's time-alignment.
Crossover mods, new points of crossover?
This is simply for fun, but I've got no issue changing these around, modding, whatever.
Again, anything goes. I know all of us have at some point either owned these, or found them for cheap. I cannot imagine there not being a better way to do these.
