RE: Schematic 1.7i's for a DR x-over upgrade???

I don't consider it a super-tweeter because it doesn't extend any higher than it already would. It only changes the polar response of the speaker at the top end because the tweeter is now 1/4 the width.

But, the main reason people might consider switching back to the "normal" configuration is the impedance drop at the top end. It drops down to 1.3 ohms. If you disable it, the impedance is 4.8 ohms minimum.

Much would depend upon the power amplifier used though. Some might not have any issue with that impedance load.
I'm not advocating one way or the other. Just mentioning that's very easy to reconfigure it.

Dave.
