Re: Euphonic Compression

Ultra thin magnet wire 30ga. used as speaker wire provides .5 ohm per 10ft.. Makes wonderfull notch filter/zobel when this wire "warms" with a 1-5 watt signal. Sounds fantastic as a speaker wire. Problems are durability and the overcompression of bass transients. Yes, magnetic or transformer based attenuation in the crossover and zobel network is what's needed. $pendy. Often called "glare" peaks and harshness is probably source/amp related and not the drivers anyway. Get rid of the caps and resistors in the system first, then work on the speakers. TC
