Yes I think they need to match - I was looking at one of the hivi isoplanar ribbons perhaps as they are more like conventional tweeters in shape and dispersion.
Tweeter quest
Dear All,
I heard a really good ribbon tweeter over the weekend. Its spurred me on with an idea I have had for some time - namely replacing the vifa tweeter in my pmc mb2-xbd-a with something of the standard of the rest of the drivers. What ribbon units would people recommend as being the best around? In addition what are the pros and cons of ribbon v. electrostatic. What are the best electrostatic tweeters currently?
So far the following have been suggested:
BG NEO3-PDR PLANAR TWEETER w/BACK CUP
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=264-735
Raal 70-10

Raven R3.2 MMX

HI-VI RT1L ROUND PLANAR TWEETER
