i have read about crossovers being prepared and embedded in resin.
i quote "The upper-frequency crossover is afforded its own enclosure at the rear of the speaker. The entire assembly is potted in epoxy resin. This prevents any movement of components during music playback. The acoustic hell of a cabinets internal airspace will modulate a "naked" crossovers accuracy over time. Potting ensures that the crossovers original performance characteristics remain unchanged over the life of the speaker. The low-frequency crossover is located in its own sub-enclosure at the base of the main enclosure." - unquote- this from a review of the Wilson slamm loudspeaker.
is this a good idea? if i wanted to do it where could i source this resin? - what if a crossover component failed?
is that reviewer talking bull-crap?
