I gre out of Be Tweeters

I was at a bar the other day (well probably yesterday .... hahahah)


In any event, I was discussing how much my taste in beer has changed. I started with lagers, especially Mexican brands. Then I became a Guiness snob, and then I went over to IPAs and Belgian Abbey-style ales. Now while I can tolerate a lager, I can't stand a Belgian white at all. 


What makes me think of this here is tweeters. There was a short period of time when I thought I loved Be tweeters. I've grown completely out of them. I don't particularly like the "affordable" diamond tweeters either. I'm done.


What about you? Is there a technology you liked  earlier in this hobby and now have turned completely against?

BE tweeters are quite bright in my opinion, much prefer a silk dome....
Beer, can't drink Molsons (I am in Canada) Coors etc....all that highly processed stuff. Buy beer  brewed by Big Rock Breweries here in Alberta....very nice ales and pilseners...

Salk uses a SB Acoustics Satori.

Only on one of the steeliest examples of recordings of massed violins did I hear some glare/shrillness.

Fritz uses Transducer Labs.

That sounded the best to me of the ones I've heard.

Huge number of TL fans, and I always like Fritz speakers and value.

Not quite as good as the ScanSpeak AirCir.  I've used both and the AirCir sounds more 3 dimensional.

Over the years I notice I go on and off with ribbon tweeters.    I have a few different vintages of carver amazings .   With modern dsp they can really be amazing     Sometime pieces they sing better than my more modern speakers.   Some material they should thin.   Similiar to electrostatics in some regards .
