Want to be special?

I don't know about that..

The SEAS 27TAC has improved the off axis response, but the 25kHz breakup is nightmare fuel. Its among the worst I've seen for a "premium" tweeter, also the moving mass of 0.36 grams is also much higher than some of its competitors.

Quote:

It supposedly is simply an improved 27TBFC. Copper cap where there was not one before, titanium (Titan line) voice coil former, a reshaped and carefully damped chamber, as well as being shipped/sold in matched pairs. I'll admit, the $91 price tag seems a bit high for production with a glass-reinforced plastic faceplate, but truth is you don't find titanium formers in very many drivers that cost less than $100. Normally they are aluminum, glass fiber, or Kapton. Seas uses a Corian material in their diamond line tweeters, so maybe they don't use metal faces often either. (I see Excel units are cast faces) The faceplate is really thick when it comes down to having plastic faces of any sort, along with what appears to be a metal hexagrid. The chamber cup and integrated divot remind me of those in the DX/XT line from Peerless, basically a sinusoidal curve of Pi length rotated around the Y axis. It's not quite a half-torus shape. Being that the TBFC is a bit splashy, and these have a copper cap to reduce HD, that is what tickled my fancy. More on the tweeter choice will come when I start posting info about the design path.

Didn't the D2004/602000 have off-axis measurements posted before?

I looked at the surround and laughed thinking this would be crap.
Then I looked at the measurement and stopped laughing.

100 W (noise) and 350 W(!) (IEC)

Is 350W the IEC "long-term" power rating?
