What to do with Vifa D25TG-58's

bigerik · 24th November 2004, 07:15 PM

Hi All
Just had a pair of these fall into my lap and I am wondering if anyone knows any magical combos that will work with this tweeter. Thinking of something simple in a 2 way, 5 1/4 or 6 1/2 woofer, or something close to that.
Anyone know any major speakers that use this tweeter? Any stengths/weaknesses to look out for?
Thanks!
Erik

No one ever seen or used these tweeters?
Thanks again!

I have never heard of the D25TG but I have the DX25TG are you sure the part number is correct? If so then I am guessing it is an older model of the Classic line from Vifa and would probably work well with the P17WJ00-08 and Cross over at 3500 Hz

Thanks Sly
Tag on the side reads D25TG-58 6ohm 103.

Perhaps an OEM version of some kind? Look like a standard Vifa soft dome tweeter. Have to see if I can find out where they are from!

Found out they were yanked from some Tangents from the 80's. Hmmmm

I was just talking with my friend that owns a pair of Tangent speakers from the 1980's. He tells me that they have a pair of 8" Keff speakers. He will see is he can get the model numbers off the drivers in a day or so. The interesting thing about the set up is that although the speakers look identical the are not. One is designed for long through and acts as a woofer, the other has a tighter diaphram as is set up on the crossover as a mid. He agreed with me that using any woofer from the Vifa Classic line would work nicely with the tweeter, but we will try to get the model numbers for the 8" Keff drivers if they are shown on the drivers.

These are Vifa's but made for PARADIGM 7SE, Vifa used a soft dome instead of an alloy one.

This is a decent tweeter and will match up with many drive units.
