Why not?
Have you ever seen a bone-stock Harley? The after market industry (including their own) is ripe with every conceivable thing you can hang, bolt, glue or screw on one that make the bike different from someone else’s. Whether or not these additions ... 
Does dose anyone see these speakers in real?

What Is Most Important?
The listener.  
When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one...
Whenever someone tells me that, "Speaker A sounds better than speaker B", I ask in what way? Nine times out of ten they reply that it sounds better in every way which is nearly impossible and reveals what kind of listener they really are. The bott... 
Record Seam Splits
I, of course did something similar to the suggestions. The point is I did not want to discard the inner sleeve and that today's manufacturing defects and lack of quality control are unacceptable. Although I always put my new records through a good...
