I recently spoke with Paul Eizik regarding the criticality of the open-air mounting of that driver instead of baffle-mounting. I decided to go extreme and to get rid of that plate that I had under the driver no mater now small it was, also I thought ...

Rich,
if you have T350 (not T35) then it would be shame do not use them. Make sure that they are not ST350 and not 350A 350B or whatever later modification they were. If you did not use the truly wide dispersion driver before then it might take som...

Tweeters Alignment - what is a bitchy subject! I was mildly complaining about it for years and during the last few weeks I complain about my own tweeters - primary because the very same issues of the imperfect alignment. This there is a derivation of...

Very nice mounting. Hopefully the ridgidity will not cause any other unwanted vibrations from moving the assembly ever so slightly. I doubt it could be heard if so. Having used the T-350 (and t-35) over quite a long period from the mid 70's through t...

Hi Romy,
Give the ribbons a try http://www.e-speakers.com/products/beengineering.html. These are too expensive I think but believe me the sensitivity is real. The best part is also that the impedance is very flat and an easy amplifier l...

A second opinion needed.
Interesting, I recently found a very-very well performing setting for my EV T350 tweeter. I changed the source for HF channel form amplifier’s output to the MF channel and now I source the HF channel AFTER the MF high-pass f...

A German company Avatar Acoustics makes loudspeakers with adjustable positioning of their ribbon-tweeter. This is very much with the context of this thread although I’m questioning a lot of things in those loudspeakers (pretty much everything beside ...

Listening my Macondo with new “Fundamental channel” I noted that my tweeter is not as effective as it use to be. The effect of “not-effectiveness” is very minor but at some recordings it is notable. My T350 still sorts the Vitavox S2’s top but it als...

The more I conceptualize my view about tweeters the more I like sound of my playback without it. The last night there was a San Francisco broadcast with estimable Tilson Thomas on podium and I was shocked with stunning SFO’s tone. As many times I hea...

Antonio,
The Amati's tweeter and the rest of the similar tweeters are totally out of game form the prospective of my post above. The Amati's tweeters kick in at 2.500 with first order (heavily compensated), it means that those tweeters run the imple...

Following my recent “new objectives” with tweeters (partially covered in the last posts of the following thread)

Hi Romy,I think you may be struggling to get 10-12db of gain out of a spud amp (the term is a play on "one tuber").... May just about get it with 6C45.... remember you will be stepping down something like 12 to 18:1 on the OPT.best case: 10db require...

Bud, perhaps it does makes sense to try the “dotizm” one again. I quite severely review my view on the way in wish I use tweeter. I still am trying to make T350 to work, let see what I end up with. Nowadays my T350 sitting in 3rd order crossover, it ...

As I have mentioned previously I’m slowly in a process of assessing other opportunities for my Macondo, since the EV T350 driver it too soft to be paired with Vitavox S2. While I am doing it an old observation keep knocking in my head. A few years ag...

[quote user="haralanov"] Yes, the demonstration is the only way to know exactly what type of sound/music presentation you have in your room, I’m sure it will be very interesting and educational for me, but too bad you live on the other side of th...

Hi Romy. Have you tried a large cone high efficiency tweeter? I have used a Saba 4 inch diameter 'green cone' 99 dB/w without a horn and found it to be interesting. Have you tried some kind of horn loading with such a tweeter? Steve...

Partially is because not one was able, in my view, to integrate with playback that made me to like the Sound. The plasma tweeters always sound separate from the rest of channels, very nice itself by separate. Of cause I did not hear all plasma tweete...

well, i believe that the popularity of the better fostex tweeters comes from their typical, off-shelf sound which is soft and easy on ear in comparison with super-resolunt Ti or Be diaphragm equipped competition. they very much suit any sharpness com...

Ok, did today the Red’s tweeters. Got rid of the original Tannoy’s
cable mounting plate and ran my own cable directly from twitter. Drove it with Milq’s full range channel. Used
the speaker level 2uf cap (my favorite high voltage eQube coupling cu...

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...

Well, I am not a big fan of plasma tweeters.
First, of all they generate a health hazardous gas while they operate. All contemporary plasma drivers have catalytic converters that presumably convert this gas into something neutral. The process of con...

Very interesting application Romy, I really like the adjustment system that you built in. I have some EV tweeters in the shop, never even listened to them. Steve Schell and I haven't gotten to the point of trying tweeters in our field coil system yet...

Romy,
Put them in a box and send them to me. Did you notice the replacement diaphrams available on eBay? Gone now, but they did not sell so will probably return.Bud...

Just some scattered points:1) I gather the Acapella plasma tweeters have a catalyst so you don't get the nasty oxides/ozone etc. Got some old ionofanes on the way so will know soon how well they freshen up the room... They are self-amplified so ...

It's still first order since you have more than two octaves overlap.
But it's a two pole quasi first order as well. I use this trick
sometimes. The problem with first order is that excursion continues to
rise below the crossover point, which of co...

The thing I notice with live music is the way the sound at all audible frequencies has articulated drive like I never hear with "true HF tweeters", or at least not the "tweeters" that go way up there. I got some sense of this drive and nat...

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 ...

The 5E6P is the same as my 5E5P only with more or less military ambitions and with congenital “western” pins layout. It has more fragile specifications and more tight tolerance then 5E6P but it is the very same tube. There is very very very minor...
