Ribbon Tweeters???


I am considering ordering a pair of speakers that use Ribbon Tweeters(HiVi I believe)& was wondering what you folks could tell me about what to expect to hear from them as far as tone,imaging & soundstaging etc...when compared to a good Silk Dome(Dynaudio).Thanks much,Take care...

Not familiar with the ribbons you are talking about but the ribbons on my Maggies are the most beautiful tweeters I have ever heard. I think good ribbon tweeters are certainly as good and many times they are better than the best dome tweeters.
Ribbon tweeters, generally, sound airy, delicate, smooth (meaning NOT edgy), more like real music. I wish my speakers had 'em...but I'm working on that. :-)

Do you know speaker model or hivi model? I use the rt2 pro its a good design for the cost. Some of the more affordable Hi vi model's can be a bit edgy to my ears.
Hey JohnK,speakers are the new Decware DM945's.Sorry but I don't know the exact tweeter model.Thanks for your replies..
I agree wholeheartedly with the above comments. My previous Dynaudio speakers were very good indeed. The current speaker uses a bi-fold ribbon tweeter ala Magico. Extends up to 57kHz. Sweet, Fast, Articulate and Natural are all adjectives that describe what they can do. Pick a manufacturer that you trust. Try to see whose tweeter they are using and reasearch that.
