Maybe the single full range driver in your speaker manipulates the part of the treble range that adds the crispness/attack component of cymbal sounds. I have never owned a single driver speaker, but it was my understanding that they are limited in their treble extension, but I also know that it's easy to fool our ears with careful design.
Instrument that showcases your system
Hey guys n' gals!
I was about two hours into a listening session this afternoon when I made the statement that "I've never heard another system make a cymbal sound like that".
Are there tracks and/or instruments that your system reproduces very well? So well that you play those specific tracks and point out "listen to this part!"?
As I said, for me, it's cymbals of all types, rides, splash, and high hat specifically. This is particularly odd, given I don't have a metallic tweeter (no tweeter, actually).
I'd love to see what you've all got to say!
