DCM TimeFrame speakers - correct way to stuff?

I'm wondering about the correct way to stuff DCM TimeFrame speakers?

I recently bought a pair of TF-700s, but the stuffing arrangement was much different than what I remember from my similar TF-500s... these units have been previously "restored", and certainly the stuffing was rearranged and is now different than factory, for better or worse???

I've heard the transmission line speakers are greatly affected by the stuffing, so I assume this is actually quite important, and likely different than for most conventional speakers

so, I'm wondering *where* exactly I should place the stuffing, and approx. how much or how densely packed in each area

also, does it help to increase the amount of stuffing with these DCMs?

the stuffing appears to be a type of polyfill

pl. see attached sketch of the open cabinet (rear view)

thank you!

here's a pic of what my TF-500s looked like inside, and I'm *almost* certain this was the factory arrangement of the stuffing...

That looks right. My TF1000 had a little more down at the bottom of the cabinet.
