In Reply to: RE: Thanks very much! I wonder if they could swap in the SB Satori TeXtreme tweeter... posted by JCarney on February 18, 2023 at 11:49:20:
Yeah, they seem almost too good to be true.
Between the long throw and the high-ish Moving Mass, they need a huge Force Factor, but they still seem not as Agile as other similarly priced high-end drivers such as Accuton.
Question is, what makes the most difference in the sound?
It seems that the Genius Aspect is the Hair-Scrunci style mountainous surround, which enables to eye-popping Xmax, with still the lowest distortion Erin has measured.
I have not crunched the numbers between the Satori Beryllium and the TeXtreme tweeters.
But even so, listening is the only test that matters.
The design client who was funding this project has asked me to lie low for a while. I hope the restart the project.
A shoot out between a TeXtreme woofer and a Purifi woofer would be totally engrossing.
