Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions Why no HP Tweeters or midrange?

Thanks Mojo. I knew I could count on you for a great explanation!

So in theory , with the HP bass section compared to a regular version of the same speaker we should be able to hear the difference , say in a blind listen test? The midrange is also being asked to do more of the bandwidth too, a 1000 hz more. Obviously it can handle it but does adding that extra 1000hz change how the midrange sounds as it’s handling more ? ( less linear?)Not sure if I remember correctly, but the midrange is naturally attenuated anyway?

I think the HP sounds like a good idea for a full range speaker in terms of a single pair to do it all. No subs needed. Or are there advantages to non hp and pairing with subs for better control as you eluded to there with the m2 but I’m thinking of non HP towers with subs).

( I think at some point here I’ll just grab a pair of m2 and bloody try it out ! Too busy right now though.)

Thanks again for the education.
