Shane,

Are you using the piezo or softdome tweeter?

softdome. It's the new Xover and tweeter. I got the kit from Wayne last summer. I messed with cabinet damping and all that stuff and tried everything I could think of but messing with the Xover. It's not unbearable or anything, but after 1/2 hour or so I've got to go turn roll the high freq. down a little.

one π / two π response curve [message #21542 is a reply to message #21540] Wed, 31 May 2006 09:49 Go to previous messageGo to next message

The tweeter is actually about a decibel lower than the midrange. It's barely audible but you can see it in the measurements. There's a gradual downward slope at the crossover region, drops a decibel around 5kHz. Other than that and a small 1dB suckout around 800Hz, response is basically a straight line.



Thanks Wayne --Lets go someplace else with this discussion [message #21543 is a reply to message #21542] Wed, 31 May 2006 10:47 Go to previous messageGo to next message

I think if we're gonna keep on about the twos we should take it to the other forum.

Agreed [message #21547 is a reply to message #21543] Wed, 31 May 2006 14:15 Go to previous message

The two π tower isn't a single driver speaker - I only posted the response curve to clarify things because the two π tower was already being discussed.
