I have been designing and building my own Hi Fi loudspeakers for nearly 50 years - some of my attempts more successful than others! Experience has shown me that the humble L Pad is the perfect way to match the sound output of the respective drive units. My latest project is a large 2 x way design featuring an 8” Mid/Bass and a 1” dome Tweeter. As is often the case, the tweeter is over bright (and in this case, adding an unwanted shrill to the sound). Enter the L Pad... by connecting this device to the tweeter, l can attenuate (reduce) the actual volume to match that of the Mid/Bass driver. What a difference!
In my humble opinion an L Pad (irrespective of which type driver you may want to ‘tame’) is absolutely essential.
Thankyou for your review !

Excellent driver and superb service and advice from Willy's hi-fi. Would certainly recommend and I will definitely be using again. Super fast delivery and great prices
They offer great advice genuinely helpful and knowledgeable.
Excellent service.
Very happy with this replacement part, especially once id fitted it correctly!! Sounds great so know where to go when the other one fails. 👍
Just as expected. Works perfectly as a subwoofer @400Hz in a mono bi-amped active internet radio set up in my study. Thanks!
Bought a pair of these to replace the failing drivers in my 20 year old Alesis M1 Active Mk2s. They are physically a near perfect match for the cabinets and are a good match electrically for the amplifier, but sound better than the original drivers. The only slight complication is the original drivers use one 2.8mm and one 4.8mm spade terminal, so you need to change one of the connectors. These have given my old monitors (now my 'kitchen speakers') a whole new lease of life. Next step is to replace the rubber surrounds with a grille.
There is a detailed review of these drivers over on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCb-rzCSK2s
Great service from Willys. They were dispatched straight away and arrived next day, very well packed.
I recently installed the Linn Keilidh active Tweeter Upgrade Kits from Willys Hifi. It works great! It took
1 month to get here snd had to pay an additional 90 euros in taxes and customs fees but it was well worth it!
