Illuminati (1st Degree)

I hesitate to comment since I have never heard it, but its frequency response curve reminds me of the $30 Selenium DH200E, which I once compared directly to the Eminence PSD 2002 sitting atop the 3 Pi's. Using the standard 3 Pi crossover I found the treble response dropped very sharply with increasing frequency, so much so that it sounded like there was no "presence" with the Selenium. I notice the Eminence 1001 has the same kind of drop between 3.5 and 10khz. The 2002 is a bit pricey in comparison (all good compression drivers are), but it carries all the information above 1,500khz in the 3 Pi, and I would be concerned it might not sound very good.

Compare the freq response graphs on the mfg spec sheets for the 1001 and the 2002. The 2002 has a dip too, but the capacitor that parallels the series resistor in the L pad does a reasonably good job of compensating. I doubt it would for the 1001.
