This is so interesting.

Thanks for all the info.

Yes, now it seems we used wayyyyyyy too much water, gel, and oil.

With the gel, we were opening the back end and literally coating the baffles with gel, since the gel was gelatinous and globbed together. And yes, we would get a gob full of gel blowback. Since we were using hair gel, which we were told was ok to use, combined with our sweat and heat, after a while, we were a sticky mess.

I'm not sure which was worse. Being sticky and sweaty from the gel or being greasy from the oil.

I'm curious. Next time I'll shoot it with just a little bit of moisture and see what happens (I was wondering why we didn't hear much of a difference). Maybe using too much wetness decreased performance because it caused the sound waves to circumvent the baffles. I don't know. I will see if we see a bigger difference next time.

Today, I learned something new again.

Many thanks.
