Is my tweeter that bad?!

Tomv · 9th June 2005, 04:24 PM

I own a Philips AD 0161 T8 tweeter and in all the forums I mentioned it, people were horrified.

Could please tell me what do you think?

Well, back in the late 70's and early 80's it was very common and considered good. But these days there are so many better tweeters for so little cost that using the 0161 is pretty much a waste.

If I want another tweeter than that what should I get, I'm thinking of one from Scan-Speak or Peerless

Why schlep tweeters from Denmark to Israel when your homies over at Morel have a bunch of good ones?
