[QUOTE="gbyleveldt, post: 20997, member: 122"] It'll do exactly as the name implies. It damps the enclosure, thereby limiting the contribution of the box to the sound of the speaker. Better ways (In my opinion) is to rather use thicker wood and to add bracing. I've always felt cabinet damping (as you describe) to be a bit of a shortcut... Now if you talking about damping the standing waves [i]in[/i] the cabinet, that is a different story altogether. By the way, I'm checking out some high density eggshell foam this afternoon - I'm wondering how these will pan out. [/QUOTE]
