Which Tweeter preferred- dome natural material, Beryllium/Metal or Planar Ribbon? Why?


This is bugging me. Just as I think I have the

right answer it slips through my fingers. 

 

Let's not consider cost in this opinion poll.

 

For example-

Pick one of the types of tweeters

Choice- Planar Ribbon

Reason-Low moving mass and larger surface area vs domes.

 

Everyone should have an opinion here unless they are relatively new to the game.

Lets see if we all learn something new!

Aurum Cantus true ribbons and AMT. I love um. I like two horn loaded planar designs to. They were over 25khz

There are a lot of soft domes and rings I like to. They just don't have the range.

There is not a single hard dome I like, diamond, Beryllium, iron, magnesium, SS or tactile. YUK!

Mid range that different. There is a couple tactile domes I like 1 1/4" - 2" or so.
