DIY Ribbon Tweeter build question....


Hi All,
I just picked up a pair of Aurum Cantus G2Si Ribbon Tweeters for a song and was wondering if adding them to my system in conjunction to my Fostex driver'd speakers and 25w/ch tube system would be advisable?

I don't plan on modifying the Omega speakers, but I have the skills to build a nice encasement for these.

If you think it's a good idea, what do I need as far as capacitor / crossover?

Thanks,
K

Need to know what fostex driver your using. But you might beable to get by with just a capacitor
6" paper twin-cone Fostex FE 167E with a frequency response at 50-20KHz & a sensitivity of 95dB at 8 ohms.
Thanks John.
167e rolls off around 12.5khz on axis off much earlyer. A .68uf mundorf or .82uf would work great. Or for less a clarity .47uf or 1.uf. Use a higher value if you listen off axis if you dont .68uf is pretty much where you want to be.
