We spend too much time talking about tweeters


I do it too. I'm guilty.

Just saying.  85% of the sound out of a speaker if not 95% is not in the tweeter, but the marketing people have us talking more about them than anything else.

A great tweeter doesn't ensure a great speaker, but then again a bad tweeter will ruin any speaker.

Yep must be 1k tweets out there in speaker universe.

To my ears a  tweeter = tweeter.
I only consider tweets at a true 91/92 db sens.
90 is too low.
Only use a  tweet for emblishments for my dual WBer setup., 9khz .
wide bands
40ish hz - 12k+ hz.
beats any tweeter

Running a  3 inch paper tweeter, love it at 92db sens. Gonna swap for a  92db Beryllium NeoDymium magnet sometime early  next year. Scan clone.
can't say which will win out.... 



It was very noticeable when one tweeter wasn’t working but when listening to a working one without the other drive units connected it doesn’t sound like its doing much to my 60 year old ears.
