Exceptional Cone Tweeters

ARRAY · 3rd October 2009, 12:24 AM

Some people are fans of cone tweeters, others aren't. I have two pair of truly exceptional Japanese-made cone tweeters here for someone who is looking for such a product to incorporate into their project. I have seen a lot of cone tweeters before and these are the most unique to date, with remarkable build quality. Contact me for details.

No pics or price?

Hi Cal, I'll admit the ad is a bit of a teaser but they won't break anyones piggy-bank. It's really intended for someone who specifically & seriously wants to buy a high performance cone tweeter. This is not a "general" advertisement as it were (thus the lack of pictures, explanation). For any prospects, PM's are invited...

I'm not a prospect, but I'm curious, nevertheless. A pic and some details would be nice.

I understand what you mean Shaun...

Are they as good as the Davis TW26K2F or the Focal T70 ? I have not heard another cone tweeter that gets anywhere near the old Davis. The Focal is nice but nowhere as smooth as the Davis.

Hello Ex, I couldn't say how what I'm offering compares to either tweeter you'd mentioned. The only way to do an accurate comparison is have all tweeters measured on the same equipment at the same time and by objective listening tests by several individuals simultaneously A/B'ed (something which I haven't done).
I can say the Davis tweeter was selling for around US$180 per, and mine aren't anything near that.

Thanks for answering, I would certainly like to have a listen to a pair. Unfortunately I can't run my LEAP to measure them. Do you have any specs for sensitivity and FR etc ?

Peter.

Hello Peter, I haven't done any of those measurements but I can tell you from previous experience they have a resonance of ~275hz on a diaphragm dia of 1.25".
