Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
The bass and midrange you dope and run full range and run in series . I think I have misunderstood something else here so I’ve been re-reading the thread. I thought the mid always had to have a cap on it? Or this is only while doping? I was looking at this thread: https://hifisubjectivist.org/viewt...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
We’re making progress here… Tweeters not destroyed and looking better: 5F39BC90-82AF-459B-B190-CA943B5A0672.jpg I’ve messed around with the wiring so much tuning these that it’s a mess so I’m doing a complete rewire today and tidying things up. Does it matter what order the bass and mid are connecte...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
This is a spray can too. I shake for a minimum of 60 seconds before spraying. I’m sure at some point I’ll just load it on straight from the can again like I did to start but I wanted to be careful when applying to the second set of mids after thinking I had ruined the first. Turns out that a little ...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
Plastidip should work fine on your tweeters. In fact "tweeter doping" works well to smooth out a spiky treble frequency response on some tweets. As with Bison Kit on woofers, add a layer or two and then listen. Thanks for the info. Glad to hear it’s a possibility. ;-) You can probably add...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
Does anyone have experience with Plastidip and tweeters? On one of the shipwreck tweeters I have managed to ease out the dome which was pushed in. It’s in bad shape cosmetically: 3F5D5322-9C1A-4D6F-B9E1-2E3FCC61EC17.jpg The coating that’s mostly come off appears to be non-breathable. I am wondering ...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
I’ll keep documenting what I am doing so it might benefit someone else, or an interesting read. I’ve learned a lot doing this so here we go. One thing that became apparent very quickly is that this Plastidip changes A LOT with curing time. I had read in one of the threads that Doc said it needed tim...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
Quick question to those in the know - only on certain tracks with very piercing highs, I’m getting a slight amount of distortion from the mids. However, I am happy with their overall performance. I was reading Doc’s explanation of where highs and lows are produced by the cone. Am I correct in think...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
I’m not sure how I’d go about removing the dust cap on this pair now they’re liberally coated in Plastidip but could try that for the next pair. With that said - I’ve just listened to a track that gives me a slight amount of distortion and applied very light pressure with my finger to the cap and th...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
Without the majority of the XO network, I fancy the bass has improved. I didn’t expect this as the bass was wide open before, but it’s definitely better. Quick question to those in the know - only on certain tracks with very piercing highs, I’m getting a slight amount of distortion from the mids. Ho...

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice
Introducing the Old El Paso spray guard. Handy for applying extra coats without removing drivers. Free in a recycle bin near you. ;-) A1257D90-4C7D-40BD-B503-B42A4428C3A5.jpg 5F9A3197-C1C2-4A16-917E-9E9B17582FCA.jpg Also, if anyone else is interested in doing this with K2s, securing the caps was rea...
