Default installed poly Fil

I had the day off today and decided to try poly . I wrapped them like I have seen on this forum. I have to say they sound better . I was not sure if I believed in this stuff. I am glad I gave it a try.They have more bass and sound full.

I need to do this for my BT's. I'm not looking forward to removing the fairing.

I've removed and replaced my polyfil several times with anywhere from one to three layers. Currently I have two layers. I'll probably go back to three layers before long. I have to say that although it is hard to make a really good comparison before / after I do believe it helps the bass.
