Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Actually, the addition of the Be tweeter...

to my Master Control MMCs was an enormous upgrade. It opened them up significantly over the stock tweeters. Now, granted the stock tweeters in my MMCs were Vifas and Ref 3a had moved on to Seas and then to Dyanvox tweeters since then.

I did hear a pair of the Royal Virtuosos and they would not likely benefit much from the Be upgrade (they had Seas tweeters) but who knows?

The Be has the extension of metal tweeters but with a softness that is close to a great soft dome tweeter. After having ribbons and electrostats and now horns for so long, soft domes sound terribly overdamped to my ears. The Be gets much closer to an ideal tweeter IMO.

I heard some upper middle AN E speakers the other day with a Meishu amp and CDP3.1/X (I think) cd player. The sound was a mid-bass heavy and muddy sounding. Not really high end even IMO...very disappointing.
