Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions Upgraded tweeter for M22 speakers,anyone done this

Brian, I've looked at those before. They are a type of subwoofer made by Tymphany(Peerless, Vifa).

Thanks guys!

I was hoping someone here had done it so I wouldn't have to figure the hard stuff!

Guess I'll let it lie for now

I'm the first person to say that I want 192 kHz sampling for all my digital audio sources, or a minimum a 384 kHz master with a 96 kHz mix for distribution.

But the tweeter only needs to go to the edge of human hearing.

Extra information in the digital signal is not to extend the upper frequency response, but to limit aliasing in the audible range.

Considering most every CD and movie soundtrack is mixed at 48 kHz the only information above 20 kHz is noise-shaping by the DAC.

You might pm either Ian or Andrew at Axiom and ask them for either the specs OR a possible alternative, anyway...the worst that could happen is they send Noreen out to kneecap you.

Adrian, if you can hear anything at 20 KHz and above you have unusualy hearing. Most men's hearing goes south startin in the late teens. You're not one of those 16 year olds pretending to be a real man are you?

Actually, based upon his supposed hearing range, I'm pretty sure he's a Real Man pretending to be a 16 year old.

Creepier yet, maybe.

Expat, anything over about 15KHz at ordinary listening levels is of only theoretical interest. If you prefer a particular tweeter, it's highly unlikely that it has anything to do with extended frequency response.

I've seen ads for devices that repel vermin and insects ... and it was the same exact Radio Shack Super Tweeters I used to own!

Here it is... on top of my glorious old speakers! Anyone else have one of dem dare Super Tweeters?



And, BTW...I pooh-pooh all of your talk regarding magnetic grills. VELCRO is where it's at, baby!
