The material is there more to break up the rearwaves from reflecting back against the speaker, causing distortion. That's why the deflex pads aren't very thick at all, and why they have those ridges all the way around them.....to deflect the rearwave away from reflecting back against the speaker.Thanks, Squeak.
Uhmm.. is there really any difference between using eggcrate foam and a deflex pad? For example, I have the entire space behind the 6.5" in the door filled with that eggcrate stuff. Won't it do a better job of blocking sound transmission through the outer skin of the door, or is it really just there to break up the backwave of the speaker??
