I am considering ordering a pair of speakers that use Ribbon Tweeters(HiVi I believe)& was wondering what you folks could tell me about what to expect to hear from them as far as tone,imaging & soundstaging etc...when compared to a good Silk Dome(Dynaudio).Thanks much,Take care...
Ribbon tweeters, generally, sound airy, delicate, smooth (meaning NOT edgy), more like real music. I wish my speakers had 'em...but I'm working on that. :-) .
Do you know speaker model or hivi model? I use the rt2 pro its a good design for the cost. Some of the more affordable Hi vi model's can be a bit edgy to my ears.
I agree wholeheartedly with the above comments. My previous Dynaudio speakers were very good indeed. The current speaker uses a bi-fold ribbon tweeter ala Magico. Extends up to 57kHz. Sweet, Fast, Articulate and Natural are all adjectives that describe what they can do. Pick a manufacturer that you trust. Try to see whose tweeter they are using and reasearch that.
