Just wondering how well the the hex pads would work in this application as i noticed they are not as resposive enough as the rubber pads.Also took out all the foam and steel plate and did a mock up of the cone above the piezo with skin overtop but just as unresponsive.Is it the comuter program by xln that makes it work in this situation?Trying to think of a way to make simmons pads from scratch but stretching mesh overtop with the cone system inside ,so it will look like a sds 5 pad but modern to todays systems.Any advice Thanks
