Carbon up the Cans

The Akra's have been on and going strong for the last ~500kms......they still need a bit more conditioning (via heat cycles through normal use) - however they are starting to "Carbon Up" nicely......

As the burnt carbon deposits build up in the expansion chamber of the can - as well as coating the surface-area of the internal baffle, the cans' sound becomes deeper and the flow rate tends to increase.....as does exit pressure...

This all leads to better sounding and performing Akra's.................game on...


Still some more work to do - eh? Getting there though....bit dirty too.....bloody rain this morning on the commute

You can see the coating is not that thick yet......after about 500kms I can hear and feel the difference....I anticipate the true sound and performance won't be available for another 1,000kms.


Straight down the throat....flash on......you can see the internal baffle surface is getting carbon powder deposits.....
