Judging from (lack of response) it seems that no one has bothered to flock the
outside of the baffle tube. I think I'll try with and without flocking and see
the difference.

The inside of the baffle of my LX200 has those equally spaced baffle rings.
This is a relatively newer addition to the design. When the LX200s first came
out they did not have those rings. Do you have them? I wonder if folks without
the rings flock whereas those with the rings do not?
