You're gonna slap me or worse but . . . it is the white woofer cone Studio
NS-10M. I hit them with an extremely, extremely light coat of flat black
spray paint years ago. I am almost 100% positive that I did NOT harm the
cone or the tone.
I've just completed my monitor A/B check at GC and SA. See new post. Mixing
monitors A/B review.
