What kind of adhesive are you using to glue your DCC speakers to baffles/enclosures?

Just carefully applied standard CA glue and accelerator (my favorite combo for pretty much most of my gluing tasks).

I always use canopy glue for this like Micro Krystal Klear (check my spelling of the misspelling). It takes a little while to cure but it is forgiving and seems to provide an airtight seal.

Hi  I use the thin CA glue.  I tried the gel stuff- not good, and took a long time to set up.  I run a small bead on the case, and then around the speaker baffle using a toothpick.  Then align and hold together.  Then, I go over the joint with CA on the toothpick to fill in any gaps.
