I do not use the tweeters in a conventional tweeter duty. In this arrangement, many call it " super tweeter". Yes, it is about 30kHz, I also try 25kHz (about 0.8uF). Try it, it adds "ambience" to the listening room and virtually increases the size of stage when done right. At 1800 Hz XO to my Altec 614's, 1800 Hz up to 22kHz is taken care of by the HF driver(Altec 802) and not the tweeter we are discussing. Cheers!
