What does a bad tweeter sound like?


Can anyone describe the sound....could it be louder than normal?

...just got the tweeter back and installed...just as I thought - the tweeters were checked to be working perfectly.   Vandersteen told me to check for tightness around the face plate....if not buzzing, then the only thing left is to check the crossover.   YUK.  This is no fun.
erik_squires....you probably know this, but the crossover and cables have a charge constantly going through them powered by a battery pack that gets changed every couple of years.  The idea is the same as Audioquest cables has. Its actually simple but not really elegant, since the batteries have to be hard wired in the amp, crossover, and high pass filter box.  ...done not often, but when all the batteries come back and installed after being run down a bit, the speakers have an new found clarity and power. It works.....
OMG that was fun huh? Problems with are systems really tests ones abilities. A good learning experience :-)
