[QUOTE="Jlace, post: 2796701, member: 575078"] Now I'm confused! I found this... Just so there's no confusion: Large format tweeters: 27TBFC/G (H1212) Alum/Mag 27TDFC (H1189) Textile (no /G designation) Small format: 27TAFNC/D (H1397) Alum (Madisound mistakenly has it as AFNC/G) 27TFFNC/G (H1396) Textile Same H1397 tweeter: [URL="http://www.seas.no/Prestige%20Diskan...TAFNCH1397.pdf"]http://www.seas.no/Prestige%20Diskan...TAFNCH1397.pdf[/URL] or [URL="http://www.madisound.com/cgi-bin/ind....8155&pid=2138"]http://www.madisound.com/cgi-bin/ind....8155&pid=2138[/URL] All of them: [URL="http://www.seas.no/Prestige_line%20line%20up.htm"]http://www.seas.no/Prestige_line%20line%20up.htm[/URL] Small format comments from Zaph: Seas 27TAFNC/D ($29) - Smooth response with a mild Qts bump at the bottom. Multi-chamber neo magnet allows lower Fs than many other neo tweeters. Good but not great HD, but should have no problem crossing over at 2kHz. The Vifa D26NC55 deserves mention as the best small flange neo tweeter I've ever tested, with performance that rivals the bigger and more expensive tweeters. Very low distortion, provided it's not crossed too low. If you need a very small tweeter, look no further. The Vifa XT25SC50 and Seas 27TAFNC/D, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, tie for second place in the small flange neo tweeter class. Large format comments: Seas 27TBFC/G ($30) - Very smooth response, down a few dB at 20kHz. Very low distortion of all types, particularly the near non-existant high order harmonics. No notable energy storage problems. Ultrasonic breakup node at 26.5Khz. The hexagrid cover is ugly. Seas 27TDFC ($29) - Exactly the same as the TBFCG, but with a fabric dome. Slightly rising top end response but overall very smooth. No ugly hexagrid. Similar to the old 27TFFC, but with a polymer surround and slightly cleaner performance. The Seas 27TBFC/G is the winner of this group, and has been one of my long time favorites and it's easy to see why. Completely smooth and clear, and set to erase the mindset that metal dome tweeters sound like doorbells. The 27TDFC is close behind, with an ever-so-slightly more aggressive and bright sound that some prefer and some don't. __________________ [/QUOTE]
