I would suspect the caps too. Is the problem in one speaker or both? These are fabulous tweeters (the same ones used on my Gallo Ultimates) and I'ver never heard or read of a problem like this. Good Luck.
CDT tweeters on Gallo Nucleus Solos
Hi, would appreciate insight into this problem.
The Solos I bought here on A'Gon about 3 weeks ago is missing high freq. output. The tweeter output is about 30% down so the extreme highs are missing like some triangles/bells I used to hear. Vocals are pushed back behind other instruments as well as lower in volume and there's no "air" around cymbals etc. The CDT is not supposed to be shy in this dept.
I decided to try to fix the problem myself & contacted Gallo who suspected the the speakers were pushed too hard, heating up the resistor that caused damage to the capacitors. They suggested buying caps (6.0uF InfiniCaps) saying they controlled the extreme highs & the resistors the lower part (a crossoverless design). They said the resistors are very durable so it's likely the caps though not 100% sure.
I know it's a long shot but anybody have similar experience or familiar with this speaker?
