[QUOTE="Mars, post: 846706, member: 817"] Hi Marantz123 Replacing the laminations with higher grade can be done. It depends how easy it is to get the old ones out. Try it, and let us know. My guess is that the results will barely worth the effort. At a glance, you'll have more bass extension. But... building up the edges with laminations will be useless: Only the core can magnetise the iron, and the laminations guide the flux around the core. Laminations with no connection to the core will not have an effect on performance. [/QUOTE]
