We spend too much time talking about tweeters

I think that its because tweeters handle what we thought was the majority of the range. First off, I thought I could hear to 20k because I’m still young.  Well I can barely hear to 15k; maybe I’m not so young anymore too thats a different conversation.

So yeah, if we think we can hear to 20k, and tweeters are crossed over at 3.5k then that’s 16.5k of a 20k range...

By “we” I meant normal people who don’t know about audio.  Doesn’t apply to you guys...

85% of the sound out of a speaker if not 95% is not in the tweeter

True, depending how you measure it -- yet 95% of the *irritation* comes from the tweeter. That's why people talk about them.

The best tweeter is no tweeter. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Look at a two way, no matter where it's crossed a tweeter is doing a LOT of work. It better be good.. I'm still a ribbon/planar guy, in a two way..Just takes a good one... 400-600hz < and a single driver is doing the rest.
600 - 20Khz + just a tweeter. LOL I'd say..
