Bracing notes

Bracing the speakers will counteract wood bendage(flexing). This is an acoustic treatment that allows the box to stop flexing when waveforms are reproduced inside it. The bass speaker uses alternating voltage to reproduce frequency. Because of the polarity, opposing forces attract and like forces repel, so this produces a frequency out the speaker between 20 hz - 20khz.My speakers are braced

Problems I Encountered

Bracing – I had trouble with bracing my speakersb but after talking with terry I was instructed in the right direction and was able to sucssesfully brace my speakers

Bendy Ply – When attatching my second layer of bendy ply I found when srewing the ply onto the speakers that the screws were colling wigth pre existing screws.However I switched from screws to nails and this allowed me to correctly attach the second ply

Sanding With Belt Sander – When removing the “trim” that was around my speakers from the bendy ply I found I could not completely get rid of it with just the belt sander, so after removing as much as I could with the belt sander I used a palm sander to remove the existing trim. The palm sander allowed me to make the ply sit flush with the faces of my speaker.

Painting – I had to sand back layers of paint to get a smooth finish on my speakers. Alo any drips which were formed when being sprayed had to be removed .
