A sincere thank you to all who participate in the discussions. I have really learned a lot. I'm an electrical engineer with a background in switching power supplies, audio amplifiers and analog design. And have recently been bitten by the DI speaker bug.
I'd like to build a long ribbon tweeter for a near field line source. And want to cross over at about 1.4kHz.
So my question is, how do you determine the resonant frequency of the tweeter? I would think that it is only based on the density of the foil? And if you have active EQ, can you run below resonance?
Best regards,
Gregg Stock

The resonans frequency is very low on a ribbon.below 20hz.You can offcourse not EQ too below that
Thank you for the feedback.
If the resonance is very low, then I guess what I'm looking for is the low frequency corner.
So for a ribbon mounted on an infinite baffle, what determines the minus 3db frequency of a ribbon?
