Whats the sonic tradeoff for domes vs inverted domes? I had ADS speakers with dome mid and tweeter and they were bright! My last 2 speakers have inverted domes, cones without a dust cap I call them but the lack of glare would probably be due to being modern and much more expensive than having to do with cone type. As to a radiating pattern you describe above that might suggest the wide dispersion of the dome could have more reflected energy that could overload some rooms?
Are dome midrange better than cone designs?
I have noticed that companies like ATC and Audio Technology use a dome midrange. Is there and advantage to the dome design? It does not seem to be used much.
