A while back I picked up a IC-SP3 speaker as part of an estate sale. It
looked so pretty with my IC-PS15 and IC-706MKIIG that I decided to keep
it. Unfortunately the sound is not exactly great.
    The design is a 4 inch single cone speaker in an acoustic enclosure
with 1/8 inch foam rubber on the cabinet walls and a 1 inch thick
styrofoam "wall" 6 inches back from the front panel.
    My question is, has any one managed to change the design and or
speaker to obtain a better frequency response?
    And yes, before you say it, I do use a high quality "Hi- Fi" speaker
with my IC-756.   Regards,  Keith,  VE3JKC.
