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 cup and I am
not sure how it holds at speaker level) with 0.33 air coils that I happens to
have in my hands. It made near Bessel ~6K crossover. A bit too low but it gives
the idea unit I find my box with my coils. I took off the Vitavox S2 midrange
and wanted to listen for a while to the whole sound with Red’s tweeters. Yes, I
have no MF but so what… The first feeling is that Red’s tweeters. Is VERY elegant
in this configuration. I am sure the cap will take time to break in. The good
thing is about the volume, it looks like I will be running it about munis 8-12dB
from the Milq’s full gain which opens an opportunity even to ideal the Milq’s
loading much more if I need it. I will take my older son tomorrow to my secretive
place to by good vintage coils, the MIT flea market. I will pick a bunch of the
coils
to play with…
