We spend too much time talking about tweeters


I do it too. I'm guilty.

Just saying.  85% of the sound out of a speaker if not 95% is not in the tweeter, but the marketing people have us talking more about them than anything else.

" So yeah, if we think we can hear to 20k, and tweeters are crossed over at 3.5k then that’s 16.5k of a 20k range... "
What this says is true if one thinks only in Hz, but music is more commonly measured in octaves.  Music covers ten octaves and 3.5kHz to 20 kHz is less than 2and 1 octaves./2
Excuse the typo in the previous post.  What I meant to say is 3.5 kHz to 20 kHz is less than 2 and 1/2 octaves.
