Alnico Tweeter Replacements for Alon Vs

Russ

When I spoke to Alon they were only saying that I would solder in the tweeters with the Alnico magnets and told me that there were two wires to solder on each, nothing about any cross-over parts being istalled. I will check with them again.

If Alon says that's all you need, that's great--then just be demanding on any supplier to be sure that the drivers you get are the right ones and as closely matched as possible.

ALON also rebuild there tweeters,maybe you need to check on that.I think guy name is Carl.

Yes I have read about mfgs rebuilding the tweeters so I am looking for anyone who may know if this is true, or how much the sound changes, or who supplies the tweeters and the model numbers. Or even if the upgrade is really worth it.

I checked with Alon and there are no cross-over changes.

Thanks

How old are your speakers? What happened to the tweeters? Speaker companies using OEM drivers are famous for claiming that stock units are not the same. Unless it is built with proprietary technology, what you normally have are speaker manufacturers paying $10.00 for a tweeter and wanting many times the price for a replacement. Strange thing is that you can line up a hundred audiophiles who in all good faith will tell you that this is warranted. That’s how you get to charge 40K for a pair of speakers, Better than neodymium is unobtainium, then you get into real serious money.
