OK so, I disconnected the DavidLouis 4 inch wide band
Left the W18's running with the Kasun tweet,.
Sophie Milman Beautiful Love test track,
'What did we learn?
The W18's are just incredible , but as Troels demands with high quality drivers, high quality caps area MUST HAVE. The Mundorfs really give that added punch to low bass. and the voicinng of the W18's, 70hz-800hz, very musical, no distortion, no fatigue.
I'd hate to give up what these W18's are doing fora swap to troel's W18 Nextel 003's. at $415 EACH!!!! x 4 = $$$$$$$
No I am in good muiscal shape with the old Excel magnesium's.
Still of gold value after some 16 yrs!!!!.
What else did the tests show?
WEll my tech friends Rat Shak Nova 7B's boast dual paper tweeets, 1 slightly offset fq that the other,
That I could use a 2nd Kasun.
For sure.
Is the ribbon and/or Cresendoa superior tweeter?
may-be.
But considering classical does not really reuire a steallar top end, not like in jazz, this Kasun does all it is required to do.
capture those rare 10k-15khz's with nice fidelity.
paper tweeters are still **The Bomb**
My tech geek swaers by them. I had to laugh when he loaned me a pair while my Thors were being upgraded.
I actually did not hook up his loaned paper $3 tweeters, as **trash*,, But then,, after hearing once again his Nova 7B's ?Sanyo paper tweet, I asked him ,,**can you loan me again your extra pair of paper tweets?**,
They are cheaply made at $3.
I was like,,,**huh?? WOW.. but how//**. So I reaserched and found the Kasun 91db/double magnet,,,
Again, may not be everyones ~~ cup of tea~~ but they sure work for me..
But again, the Cresendo at ~~~92.5~~~.,. This might in fact be the tweet of all tweets.
Troels pretty much says so.
He would know.
Not only is the Cresendo 5.5 db higher sens vs the old flagship , Millennium, (came out in 2000) , but the magnet is beefier.
When i get some audio hobby cash, next year, I will plan to ordera pair of the Cresendo.
You know, that may not be a bad option.
Vox/AC1A's for light chamber/solo piano + Cayin EL34
and a 2nd system
Defy7 + /W18E001 Magnesium ( I LOVE Magnesium vs paper, Nextel coated paper,,,hummm too warm?? I think so, = Magnesiusm is my cone material by necessity, as I HATE warmth. coasted paper = slightly warm. = mistake going Nextel coated paper)
+ Dual Kasun's 3.5 paper tweet. + DavidLouis 4 wide band
= The Frankenstein
~~~We are only limited by the limits of our imagination~~~~
Don't know if anyone wrote it this way,
But I am laying claim to this , my new mantra.
Maybe the Psalms are finally sinking in.....
