RSD- All

mchan888

Hello and welcome. This past summer I site recorded piano, bass, percussion and drums with my single-take, minimalist 2-mic documentary system, direct to SD at 32bit-192kHz. Earthworks QTC50s flat to 50kHz, no compression, eq, limiting, etc. Live to playback tweaking in the same space at the same time. We migrated from 3.6 monitors to 7.2s, my first up-close comparison of those models. I agree with your assessment. The 7.2 are the pinnacle of Jim’s work.

The 7.2 treble is not reticent. And its dispersion pattern is quite similar to the 3.6. So, if they sound dissimilar in your room, I suggest you lightly touch each tweeter while playing music to learn whether they’re both playing. If so, we’ll dig deeper. I have the schematics and welcome your PM to sort it out.

Thanks Jafant and Tom. 
the tweeter is coaxial with mid and has protective cover so I believe it plays music and i confirmed it with playing test tones and measures using my old but trusted radioshack sound level meter.  I can get measurement for 5khz upward.  What is interesting that I found out and need further investigation was there was a dip of about 10khz of about 3db compared to 1khz.  12khz was less dip.  This was measured both at listening position as well as abt 3ft away from the speaker. Not sure if this was due to room acoustics partly.  Hope to also see the schematic to see if there is any electrolitic caps that might need replacement.  Thank you
