Modding the Zu Omen MKII


Hi all

I am a bit courious as to if anyone else went down the DIY mod path with their Omens?

What are your experiences?

On my mod list (so far)
- New Double xover capacitators
- Adding a parallell resistor to the tweeter
- Stiffening of the cabinet
- Painting the insides with noise-x
- New internal cabeling
- New bolts and fastenings for main elements.

They now sound fantastic! And play in a different league!

And probably more mods to come! ;-)

Dear, SlowLearner28

Thank you so much!  I’m going to check up on all these parts and start this project!  Thank you so much for the detail information!  I’ll keep ya posted!  I’m going to save all the pics on my iPad and start looking up on parts!  A lot of things to study! 
Hello, I saw this post and recently purchased the Zu Omen DW’s with Jupiter cap upgrade and I’m very interested in the 475-be tweeter replacement for the stock ones in the DW speakers.  I’ve been reading the post and are these the parts I’d need to replace the stock tweeters?
1.  475-be tweeters 
2.  Lpad using Mills wirewound resitstors [I have no idea what these are]
3.  P-Audio PC-20 Adaptor - 1" Small Format Bolt On to 1" Screw-in Horn [How many will I need] 

I have never done a DIY before, but I’m trying to reinvent myself by telling my foolish self that I could do it! I’d appreciate any help with the parts I need to replace the stock tweeters with the Radian 475-be tweeters. Could I fit the ZU 2" HFL-1 TWEETER LENS in the DW’s and are these lens compatible with 475-be tweeters? Sorry for all these questions.
