I painted the speaker flush mount baffle faces with an oil based eggshell paint to provide a slightly glossier and harder wearing surface than the walls. This might be useful as these faces might have to be removed every now and then for speaker repair or what have you.

I also made some improvements to the inner workings of the speaker flush mounts:

- an extra layer of wood on the back of the baffles to improve bracing and give a slight reduction to sound transmission.
- gaskets to join the speaker box to the flush mount baffle.
- deep foam gasket between the speaker and the flush mount baffle.
- gasket to bring the baffle edges closer to the speaker face.

Added gaskets to flexibly couple the speaker box to the baffle face.

Added an extra layer of 18mm thick wood to brace the back of the baffle faces and add extra mass to reduce sound transmission. These fit around the soffit frame.

Large foam gaskets coming from the baffle faces to surround the speakers. There are gaskets along the bottom of the speakers too, but it was easier to fix them to the speaker box.

Another gasket to bring the speaker perimeter of the baffle a bit closer to the speaker.
