Post Subject: The tweeters and THE tone.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 10/27/2006
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 head that orchestra it never was so reach and so “stuffed” with noble sound. Then it hit me that I have no tweeters and it was perhaps why…. The last night I drive the HF channel of my Super Milq very hard (50mA hotter then usually) and used not tweeters. It was THE sound.
It is imposable just to turn down tweeters and listen as a LOT is gone with tweeters off. However, it is necessary to learn to listening playback with tweets off in order to make sure that a playback is cable to be musical and fulfilling … without tweeters. What tweeters do in such case? Or more important: how to introduce HF space without introducing the Moronic and non-existing HF into music?
The answer is still pending. I started recently a very interesting project dedicated to making a conceptually “better’ tweeter. I do not know where it will bring me and if it will be the solution but I am have learned that it is much better do not have any tweeter at all then to have improperly performing tweeters. How a tweeter performs what it performs improperly? If you hear HF then you have a crappy tweeter. Welcome to the club…
