RE: ET LFT-8b in Harry Weisfelds system

Interesting. I have never heard the woofer squeal. My only complaint about the woofer is overall output but that is also a function of my large irregular room (as are so many things). I run them full range with the secondary output on my preamp feeding a B&W ASW1000, lp at 40Hz, gain just barely up. It fills in the bottom octaves but on some recordings I even have to turn it off.

I found the newer tweeters to be an improvement if only because of the backing material on them. No comment on the new magnet structure, I run them on the high setting.

I think that the alchemy of room, ears, and equipment is always in play. All tube driven, 4000+ cu ft carpeted room with glass sliders ~36" behind and a vaulted ceiling. Hearing attenuation for 50+ years of usage so my HF perceptions aren't going to line up with someone perhaps a lot younger.
