Hi Jim,

I have tried the Fostex F17H tweeter with a .68uf cap in series with good results. But I like the Selenium ST200 with a 4 ohm resistor and .68uf cap in series better, it blends better and sounds less "tweety".

I gave Jim a pair of those a few years back, when I visited him. I really didn't think they were efficient enough to match his Edgar Salad bowls, but I said hey, try them anyway !

Hi Rpower!

While I haven't heard them myself, I've read where others said the same thing about the Visaton TL 16 H super-tweeter. They cost $600 a pair but the Fostex T900a cost $1070 a pair. So they might even be considered a deal? I'd love to compare these two horn super-tweeters one day if I could.
