    WTF

    Check this out on ebay. Type in "field coil Tweeter". For only $2000.00 you get no permanent magnet no phase plug no horn and no DC supply. Comments?

    I'm surprised because every time I see audio snake oil I get mad.

    Life’s too short and the audio snake oil too abundant.

    OK, I kind of get how various verbal descriptions of a system's sonic characteristics might describe how it actually sounds, such as neutral, forward, warm, etc. But I am pretty much at a loss as to how "Peachy" sounds.

    I worked in heavy industry for 43 years as an electrician. That Field Coil Tweeter looks like part of a M contactor that opens an armature circuit on a very large DC motor. 90% of it is missing. He added a plexiglass cover and a diaphragm. But I could be wrong, WHF.
