.. and I have no problem with “few” of the metal domes implementations. I wonder if David Wilson “preference” for metal domes derives from the fact the he needs an aggressive upper range to get equilibrium to the noise of Wilson ports coming from Wi...

Romy,Now that I am home for a couple weeks after the CES extravaganza I am listening to my system and wondering why I thought I needed a tweeter at all. For me, the problem with experimenting with the e-bay $200 plasma tweeters is the health iss...

I have been asked by a number people who monitored my progress with RAAL’s “Water Drop” tweeter: “Romy was it worth it?” Well, I think after a year of leaving with tweeter, learning and satisfying it’s little habits I might pass some generalizing obs...

I came across an article:http://www.ultrahighendreview.com/enigmacoustics-sopranino-super-tweeter-review that introduced electrostatic tweeter that might be interesting. The company has a web site that is to unpleasant to reread/navigate: http://www....

Coops, I less care about the attacks on me, I know that I am a pH-indicator of Moronity among audio freaks. So, if some specific idiots out there are not happy about me then… it is good for me. The higher we climb in mountains the stronger wind and l...

Per your recommmendation at your last visit, wish to try using your injection channel with the Dannoy with my horns.Are you using the tannoy only as a tweeter? If so, would you recommend my removing my tweeter and using only the tannoy's, or use both...

This is about the Focal Utopia TN51 tweeter....
It is hard to imagine not much I like this tweeter, in fact there is something insanely beautiful in this tweeter and from a certain perspective (narrow-certain) I like it even more then the HF o...

I would like to pass some summarizing observations and some generalizations regarding the entire “Water Drop” project.
THE IDEA
The idea of trying to find a tweeter to compliment Macondo was a good idea. Many of you know that I was proudly declari...
|
|
Ok, none it is time to dive into the practical process of tweeters alignment. Once again I presume that we are taking about monopole tweeters that use AFTER your midranges compression drivers (read my previous post). Some people use term “supertweete...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]1) Whatever it is, in the WLM speakers the PAC driver is not tweeter but a MF driver. My definition of tweeter is that it is a driver that covers frequency range AFTER a MF channel. There is no dedicated M...
|
|
A lot of people ask me about those drivers and I’ll try to compile my vision about them. I did try most of the possible tweeters: dome tweeters with cloth cones, varies type of hard metal domes, compression drivers with aluminum, titanium, phenolic a...

There are many threads on my site where I covered the subjects of Tweeter for my Macondo and particularly the moment of integration the tweeters with Vitavox S2 compression driver. Since a few months ago I altered my idea to use the EV T-350 tweeter ...
|
|
[quote user="el`Ol"] I know the PAC tweeter of the WLM has the best transients and transparency of all tweeters I know and so is the best tweeter above 5kHz I know, although I hated the implementation (crossed far too low, harsh-sounding upper midran...
|
|
I would rather to hear from the people who use tweeters over 10K to comment not about the “quality of the tweeters” but about the quality of amplification and the quality of electricity that they use to drive those tweeters. The better tweeter it is ...

Ending up re-amping my MF channel, I found myself at unexpected situation that I am not completely compostable with Macondo HF. It is not that the HF are bad but they were made to serve the interest of older, slightly softer operating single-stag...

[quote user="cv"] It looks to me from that he might be using an S2 from around 500Hz or 600Hz up [/quote]
Well, I thought about this configuration and it would be hardly possible in the light of what Kevin does. Let pretend that MF is low-pass...

[quote user="cv"]I note you calimed a fondness for certain softdomes; looks like there are some newer scanspeaks that may have the tonal qualities of your favoured types but with higher sensitivity, which will match the Focal well. Eg: D2904 types at...

AlloIf you want to go for a cored device, I would recommend Sowter in the UK for a custom unit on a 100% mumetal core. I'm not sure what the delivery time would be though. You would definitely need to filter the LF before it hit t...
|
|
Well, it looks I’m near finding a more or less acceptable setting for the T350 tweeter. Ironically and completely accidentally it is not far form I use to be. It is still on the slope at 20Hz (since the T350 is pretty dead at 16kHz) but now it is &nb...
|
|
It is my understanding that the only reason to make a ribbon bigger is to get it to go lower in frequency. I don't know how Arum Cantus configures their G1, and I have not heard it so I cannot say if it is their "best" pure HF driver rather tha...
|
|
How did you adjust the slope? By instrument or listening or both?...
|

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...

In one if the Brits forums rowuk wrote
about Linaeum diapole tweeters:“Give them their own amplifier, then the efficiency does not
matter. Great amps are not that expensive and with the standard distribution of
acoustical energy, the tweeter does ...

[quote
user="anthony"]Romy, I'll be digging round in my amps tomorrow and
intend to install a filter for the red tweeter while there. What should I
be aiming for? 7kHz first order from memory, but hoping you can
confirm. Such a filter could be...

I think Utopia is alittle soft with less sharpness than wilson , I have no idea but maybe one of the reasons is internal wiring of utopia.personally i prefer wilson but in this level of difference maybe choosing right cable and upstream help compensa...
