Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

What is the flange?

What is the flange and is cutting it difficult? Would this be on the replacement tweeter? It's just that vinyl seems to roll off treble a bit whereas, generally speaking, digital seems to emphasize it. I just got the new Channel Islands Audio VDA2 DAC on audition and it's incredible, but it really extends treble. I may get the power supply upgrade which should refine the presentation from bottom to top. Guess I just wasn't ready for the treble extension with some of my rock CDs, which aren't always mastered as well as the vinyl reissues. I also I have it in my mind that aluminum/titanium is inferior...but that may not be true in all cases. Still, I look forward to having silk domes someday.

Thanks very much,
Audiohound
