Here's the skinny....I just aquired a pair of slot tweeters, 2405's. I was led to believe when I purchased them that they were 16 ohm.The seller said he measured and they were 12 ohms,however when I recieve them and measure them I get 5.7 on one driver and 5.9 - 6.0 on the other respectively on my meter. Seeing is believing, they are 8 ohm.

I have done a search without much in the terms of definitive answers.The 2405 came in 8 and 16 ohm I know this much, what is the reason for 2 different impedences with the same 2405 # and most importantly, what was their applications for each exclusive impedence?? Which models would use 8 and which would use 16 and why ?? I need schoolin' here and this looks like a good place for it !!
