Modding the Zu Omen MKII

Hi all

I am a bit courious as to if anyone else went down the DIY mod path with their Omens?

What are your experiences?

On my mod list (so far)
- New Double xover capacitators
- Adding a parallell resistor to the tweeter
- Stiffening of the cabinet
- Painting the insides with noise-x
- New internal cabeling
- New bolts and fastenings for main elements.

They now sound fantastic! And play in a different league!

And probably more mods to come! ;-)

I don’t really understand what they are saying there.

with the bracket the distance will be the same as for your current driver...

if the laws of physics don’t change, when you change the driver, the speed of sound coming from the new driver will be the same as from your old....

If Zu sais that, it means they did’nt get it right on all their Omen’s...

hm. I see your point! Thank you.

I had a look at the ASD 1001 Eminence drivers. They come in a B-version with that bracket off... So yeah. That would be the same thing.

Thanks, man! :)

Do you set up the L-pad like this? 1+1 resistor, and 1 capacitor for each?

Sorry for all the questions, man, I don’t know jack ... I at least know basic soldering.
