I didn't call him a liar in that post. I said his claims just aren't true. Enable doesn't elimate room modes. He said that it does. There is a distinct difference between saying someone has made a false statement and calling someone a liar. The later speaks to the persons character. The former a persons action. Big difference. Bud said I called him a liar from that post. I even then said I didn't consider it personal.

I would think with all your life experience you would understand this distinction.

Please stop. If you were to re-read what ive said throughout both threads, it would be hard for you to claim I am what you think. It is you who owes me an apology.

Edit - BTW, if you've followed this thread, you know that others have said much worse than I have. But the mods around here delete all the harsh comments (fairly). Mine have been preserved because I choose my words carefully and objectively.

It is your tone of complete disrespect that really offended me. Then finding that you didn't even have a system that would be capable of resolving the information needed to display the differences is what really tore it for me. Bud is too kind and generous a person to deserve that, considering everything he has contributed to the thread. You think I'm being mean to you because you didn't personally assault me verbally.

Well, at my age I believe in paying it forward, both good and bad. I'm generous with people who are generous to others. And I'm not to those who aren't. Take a lesson lad.

someone could just do the cymatics test with an standard + EnABL'd surface, that would give a fairly obvious visual representation showing if the process did actually do anything useful.

i'd be happy to try and do it myself but i'd need some help in setting everything up.

Listen for something that "confuses" you about what you are hearing, likely similar to what you spoke of from the mid portion of the corrugations on the main cone. The triangles are a model of the dimensions you provided and the circles in the corners, as they cross the line of the cone cross section, correspond to the center of where you found the change in behavior.

In any event, if what I have provided looks like what and where you found for a problem, I can provide a pattern guide set for you..
ok i am 100% sure on the locations on the whizzer now.

the location of the rings from the origin of the cone (base) are as follow.

1st (lowest) - 7mm
2nd - 11mm
^these^ coincide with being either side of the remnants of the glue used to attached the dustcap so will need to be fairly small i think.

3rd - 32mm
4th - 57mm

thanks for your help.

gafhenderson,

I will not be able to touch this until this coming weekend. Business has increased yet again and after 5 years of slump we are having difficulty keeping up, really, I have no hope. But I will get to this for you.

Bud

this is my attempt at putting the EnABL rings where they need to be. they're slightly different to the old ones as i finally got the strip of glue off the cone surface and it changed the locations of the anomalies on the whizzer slightly.

i couldn't get the scalable vector file i found somewhere to open, so i have to use a guestimate with GIMP so its not very sharp, nor do i think its completely centralised. will they be the correct size, spacing etc?

what exactly do i do with these now?

i've seen the trifoil pattern mentioned, do i need to use this?
