Tweeter Selection for B&W Matrix 800

Stefano, you haven't seen the build quality, I presume. 🙂

For sure all the lythics drifted... You have to measure that. Can be also the mid peaking you can hear in the trebles due to alterations of drivers datas and filters.

Can help to know waht is pluged before till to the source used.

Hi, everyone!

I am planning to replace the tweeters of my B&W Matrix 800 speakers.

In all likeliness, tweeters are the last thing needing replacement, meaning they would be faulty.

I'd start from the beginning, i.e. swapping R1 for 3R3 and higher : Mox or classic cement.

pictures of the model ?

The treble is too prominent, and should be muted. However, along with that, some changes will be needed on the crossover, because it is poorly integrated with the midrange. And that will be difficult without measuring equipment. With that DC resistance, the tweeter is practically 6ohms nominal impedance. And as far as I can see from Stereophile measurements, there are also some high-pitched rings on two frequencies.
