Dahlquist DQ-10 dead super tweeters question?


My new super tweeters are dead again :( They have only been in about a year with no abuse I know of. Do the crossovers fail and kill the tweeters? My meter does not measure caps. Any ideas out there on how to diagnose the problem? The speakers are totally stock originals.

place a volt meter across the piezo electric (super tweeter) and you will probably get a 0v reading. this means your cross-over capacitor for the piezo has blown.

i've had this happen but it has never been the piezo that's dead. if the peizo reads a voltage, i would replace it with a ribbon tweeter.

a better resource for an answer can be found at the regnar site. (former dahlquist employees)

good luck
