Hi all, I'd like to buy some of the material Fostex has used on the back of the TH610 capsule. Does anyone know what it is and where I could buy some?
I've made my own wooden driver mount fit a Fostex TH design. Fostex use an "acoustic optimiser" where there are breathable holes around the driver so sound can be vented into a separate chamber. I've experimented with filter paper and 1mm felt to cover the holes and I'd like to find something in-between: the felt produces too much bass but the paper is too much in the other direction (although it does sound better).
Looks like Fostex are using open-cell foam to cover the 610 vents but I wouldn't know where to buy it this thin.
