This tweak takes the harshness out of cone tweeters

Source Brand
just tried it Radio Shack
 
Construction
I enjoy a fairly robust listening level. However, when I turn the volume up, my cone tweeters get harsh-sounding. I had a spare piece of acoustic insulation lying around, so I tried covering the tweeter with it.
 
Setup
I cut a small piece of acoustic insulation the size of the tweeter(make sure it's not foam, but the fiberglass kind of stuff) and sewed it onto the back of the speaker grill so that it covered the tweeter.
 
Use
after setting it up, just put the grill back in place
 
Performance
Made it sound like a Hi-end soft dome tweeter. A good word to describe the sound is crystalline.
