Audio people love to argue which tweeter is better. Living aside some semi-objective technical aspects I would suggest that the debate about the advantages of one tweeter over another without referents to anything else is completely bogus. A tweeter ...

You might change your mind after you put the PP2000 into the game. Anyhow, I do not know what Bruce did with his Titans tweeter; I do not even remember it they are in time-aligned position. The EdgarHorn Titans uses Fane ST-5022 bullet tweeter. I had...

The EV 350 cones are still available form many sources, they are $25 per cone. There are some other phenolic domes for 1” driver, or smaller. I do not know anyone who does 3”-4” phenolic domes that would make them suitable for MF drivers.
As far as ...

Here is what I substitute the Celestion original copper. It is Linaeum Lweeter modified by Bud Purvine from Seattle. I do appreciate the Celestion copper tweeter more – when it is new and works properly, but I have no copper tweeters anymore. The Lin...

[quote user="Wojtek"]I'd like to point out that Fostex 500 MKII is very much not sharp and artificial sounding. If anything it's an opposite -little too syrupy , soft and round so it blends with cone mid better than beryllium tweeter.[/quote]

I was keep listening my Dutch-made SA8535 tweeter. There is a lot of deferent with this tweeter and I think it is a good time to pass my early observations about the tweeter Sound.
This driver is not a ribbon tweeter as the Stage Acompany frau...

All that I will be saying are the subject of my own experience with horns and my personal observations. You shouldn’t agree and most likely you will not. That is fine with me. I have lot of reasons behind what I will be saying and opened for some cla...

Hi, Marcus
As I understand it is 15” loaded into 110-150Hz horn, MF compression driver in 350-400Hz horn, Ribbon tweeter and a pair of tapped horns? Looks good.
If it were up to me than I would paint the entire baffle with tweeter and MF i...

Dear Romy,OK, some more about the midbass.Well, it was not really a surprise to us that the horn without the phase plug was dissapointing. Without the plug we had a horn that was a bit too short, had too large front cavity and less compression than w...

Dear All,I wish to commence gathering the components and finding the craftsmen necessary for my DIY speaker project, but wished to bring my proposal before this forum in order to establish whether it's intrinsically worthy, and whether any simple imp...

KIS,I have owned the Martin Logan CLS's so I have some long term experience with electrostatics. To me it seems that the Acapella plasma tweeter (which I have heard for a total of less than 30 minutes!) had a SIMILAR quality of sound and yet a&n...

Vitavox S2 does OK up to 12.5K ("strong, clean and in character") on it’s center but I never use this driver pointed directly to me but rather at good 20 degree off. (I hardly can tolerate any compression driver point directly to me). At my angle the...

Hi Romy,Its an Altec 416-8A driver in a ~100 Hz exponential horn, Jbl 2441 in 350Hz tractix, Aurum Cantus G1 tweeter and Eminence Definimax 4012 HO in ~30Hz Tapped horn.I just hooked it up and the highs are promising but I thought the lower end (200 ...

OK, after a few days to straggling with this damn tweeter I might report that the Water Drop actually made itself to sound civilized. It sounded somehow fine alone but it was a real nightmare with Macondo, I juts was not able to integrate it. I measu...

A moron would ask - is the best tweeter that I heard? I clearly have no idea and do not view the things in this way. A tweeter is not a self-contained element but it is an organic ingredient of the rest of installation.Rg...

Haralanov, Yes and no. Of cause no one would deny the benefits of ULF reproduction but the key questions would be: 1) what kind of reproduction? 2) how to talk about it? There is no language to convey the ULF message. The 20K repose is meaningless an...

I detected that the Water Drop tweeter has VERY interesting ability to react to the stage of out stage. I am driving the Water Drop with a full range Melquiades SET. As you know the full-rage Milq use a moderate Lindale transformer with a juts 200mA ...

I do not understand from what you said the sorts of problems you are dealing with. What are you using as high and low-pass X/Os. Where and how you cross the drivers can make huge differences in the sound. Also, how did you throttle back Macando to ma...

Thanks, Keith. I was wrong thinking that I know how the Gamma’s tweeter horn looks like. Needless to say that I would not agree with that horn (in context of Gamma configuration). In fact from a certain perspective, the way in which the tweeter uses ...

Mark,
It is hard to say. I owned T90A sometimes in 2001-2002. At that time I was going through the drivers like crazy and T90A was just one of them. Looking from now I do not think that I gave to many drivers a chance as I did not “work” them trying...
