Anything with a whizzer cone is not full range
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No indeed, it is not,
There is some roll off in the lows/highs.
But I can tell you , this lil 4 incher packs a nice lil kick in the upper bass. and highs are not so rolled off, at least for classical music,
For jazz, yeah you want more of the shimmer and glitz on top end.
I am using it more of a upper bass - upper mids driver.
The W18's now at 10uf go up to 1600hzish and so there is a huge overlap with the W18 and 4 inch whizzer, The 4 goesc down to say 100hzish. As i say has some punch for a lil guy
Highs aint too shabby either.
Vocals accurate,
Stress/distortion glares in full orch explosions/huge chorus.
But livable.
I think folks need to be aware the whizzer full range is onlya LIMITED wide band, Not a FULL range.
Again, for my tastes in orch, its more full rich ofa image vs a 1 inch dome tweeter.
I'd a whizzer cone can be considered full range as in the sense 90% of the music is voiced by the driver.
A better name for these drivers is a 90./
Other **full range** were not even 90%
More like 70% of the fq's voiced.
making these lower Q drivers , near worthless for my usage/intentions.
Lii fast 8 old model 70%
DavidLouis Diatone 6.5 70%.
The Vox was even lower.
