Light coming through speakers

Pages: (1/5) > >>

UncleMame:

Does anyone have any good suggestions for eliminating light coming through the speaker areas from the marquee light (Cloth kind of works, but still not great) - I am also afraid of plugging up the area too much and muffling the sound) - Any ideas ?

I also was wondering if other folks had issues with one part of the marquee lighting REALLY well(in the center), with the edges looking a little dim - Any suggestions there ?

Thanks ! ;)

Could you prevent the light from coming from the marquee box to the speaker area?

You could try speaker baffels for car speakers to block light. Try Crutchfield. I don't know what they will do to the sound.

I usually cut a piece of an old black T-Shirt and use a staplegun to cover the hole from the inside of the cabinet (inside the marquee area).  Then I install the speaker over it, sandwiching the cloth to the wood.  Finally, to cover any imperfections of light leaking anywhere else I use Weatherseal tape, the kind you would use on edges of a doorway or window.  They vary in size and are great for blocking light, especially on the edges of the marquee.  You simply use the self-adhesive tape to line the edges from the inside.

If there is no power near, try aluminum foil.
