Metal or Fabric Dome tweeter

I don't think, that there is a "thing", called BETTER, between "metal", or "fabric", or "kevlar" or....? Most manufacturers experiment, with different parts and drivers, and tweeters, So, they may try one year, with metal dome and another with Kevlar or vice versa! Don't forget, it is NOT a rule, that the best of the parts will make, one component to sound good! So nobody, short of the manufacturers, shouldn't "judge" one or another, just on basis of material one part is made of!

I own speakers that utilize(modified) Focal kevlar tweeter! And i found no evidence of , complaints, mentioned above! However, the company that build this speaker, no longer uses this teeeter model., but, the "Relevator" 9300! The users found this tweeter to be somewhat "thinner" sounding, and is suggested to be "toned" down, by additional resistor of aprox. 1/2 ohm! The extended highs, of the Relavator, you'll find, it is not the greatest thing, in conjugtion with some amps. Also, my favorite speakers from Tyler Acoustics (which i think are as good as Proac's, or better)exusively uses the "Relevators"! In addition, what tweeter B@W uses? Metal, of course!

Trelja, i forgot to ask you! Do you have Stereophile vol.18 no12? I am interested in the article about Discovery 123 cable. Thanks! Cmandantemarcos@hotmail.com

Thanks Trelja!I'll give Discovery a try anyway. You guys are right, but for the $ it is worth it! However, i also enjoy (at the local bookstore) the Inner Ear (Canadian) and British HiFi, beautifuly done, pricey mag.

Sure, Carl! However, Discovery 123, is one "level" lower than the "essence". But, something to think about it in the future!
