this actually started from another thread
but, what is your favorite HF driver. my bias always leans towards compression loading, especially if the sonic result is a smooth airy texture. my vote goes to the slot. ribbon arrays excite the air but, i'm never sure of what i'm hearing. while they may be great for home listening, they are impossible to use in a monitoring situation. i have heard some low cost dome tweets that sound pretty good. i haven't heard the new beryilliums whose specs go into the stratasphere and would be interested in any comments. has anyone auditioned the new JBL superHF driver 045Be?
