Because it works better than not having a whizzer cone?
Whizzer cone drivers
According to my expirience as speaker designer , i am wondering why so many companies still making loudspeakers with wizzer cone drivers and so many guys fall in love with this products choosing small paper cone as a additonal tweeter prefering high quality tweeter made from top quality components.Yes, no crossover ( capacitor) , but still ?

@russ69 Because people like it , i dont now why |
bache: I have a pair of vintage Elac S-517 8" wide band drivers that sound very good in fairly large BR cabs with no baffle step correction. Some owners/sellers thought the whizzer was metal, but I believe it to made out of some sort of metal-ized plastic. I've experimented with other vintage and older Coral/R&A/Fostex drivers (with whizzers) and these (the Elac) are the ones that I kept and still use. I also use Stephens Trusonic 80FR drivers that have a metal dust cap, but no whizzer. The Elac's I kept were private labeled by Herald Electronics (I sold the identical Elac branded pair for $300, but now wish that I had kept them as they rarely come up for sale in decent shape - mine are like new).
