If you ever wondered why your pro speakers suck at midrange sounds, or you don't hear echo-ish things.. like quiet sizzles, etc, try putting the caps back on the speakers....

It sends some soundwaves down into the echo chamber of the pro speakers and makes them a little better, for some cases, though in vocal music I don't reccomend it.

It seems to eliminate the underpowering between them and the isub.

Just thought I'd say that, for normal play no caps are okay, but for some things like highly accoustic, those protective speaker caps actually do sound great!!!

I have totally different opinion

Putting the cap back to the speakers makes the sound worse, a lot worse. The caps reflects too much sound and make the whole thing sound so echoy.
