Sean, also as I mentioned in email, the 2200 mic caps are big enough to make a difference and they are polarized, so to reiterate my email... could it be that you had polarization backwards on 1 or both caps? Again, these 2 caps have enough resistance that they could matter and they are polarized... Also being 35V electrolytic, I would much prefer to see you replace those with a higher voltage polarized electrolytic. And to ask the same questions that I asked in my emails to you.... being these are all in the mid circuit, are you sure that it is the tweeter that is the problem? I haven't seen an answer to that.
HELP AFTER MY MODS, My tweeters are subdued and weak-
So I have a pair of Mirage M1 speakers, I changed the caps in the crossovers to Jantzen Superior Z (for the tweeters) and standard z for the mids and bass.
I also changed the internal cabling to Supra Classic 2.5.
First Impressions- Not burned in yet
The highs are there but really recessed in the background. Theres a song I reference and it has a steel guitar solo, I can bearly hear it through the vocals because its seems recessed so far back.
SO HERES THE QUESTION- Is that a symptom of unburned in cables and or caps, or is that just what Supra cables give you?
When I changed the internal cabling a few years back on the same model speaker, I used DH LABS t14 Silver plated cable, This had the opposite effect, it was super bright and fast, but it smoothed out and the brightness relaxed, leaving a lot of detail but not so much your ears bled.
But here its the opposite, its dull on the top end and the vocals kind of take over and blur out the top end.
