Well, like the title suggests i'm wondering what everyone considers the ultimate tweeter that you have had experience with.

Personally, I haven't tried to many but am quite partial to the Visaton TL 16 H.

What's yours?

Is this thread about any HF system? Or just about hi-fi tweeters and super tweeters?
 
Generally more of a 'supertweeter' guy

But, here's a few that are pretty slick

Domes- peerless HDS. Great performer, high value.

Overall
A Capella plasma. Best tweeter 10k/pair can buy.

Ribbons/ribbon style- heil AMT1 (haven't heard the RAAL yet)

Not technically a tweeter, but usable response to 30k- fostex ff85k. Great highs on this, despite being directional.

My fave HF drivers are all compression units. Some BMS, Beyma and B&C and I'll hopefully be trying a couple of 18Sound units shortly.

Unity probably never unless they wanted me to, it is a patented design. I will be making that horn lens with just the tweeter again though, that is a design I worked out myself that I really enjoy.
Pity, though I thought as much. I was just holding out a glimmer of hope....
 
Soft Dome

I'll add to my favorite list the:

Scan-Speak D3806/8200
A truly great driver.

Technically a mid/tweeter it does the tweeter job beautifully. Mates up sooo well with big paper woofers. 12-15-18". Does the harmonics of vocals and piano amazingly well.

There's some nice looking tweeters here...

Have you tried the Beyma 385/nd?

I think I may have read in an old post that you were thinking about it at one stage. If so any impressions?
