Vifa Peerless D27TG-35-06 Tweeter

Great priced tweeters for some old 3 way speakers that I was restoring. These speakers are very bright and crisp at the top end as what you would expect from Peerless as they have been making decent drive units for over 50 years of my own experience.

I’d just like to say a big thanks to Will for his helpful advice.

He advised and supplied the parts I needed to replace the tweeters and upgrade the crossovers in my Mission 752 Freedom’s.

I’m absolutely delighted with the results and can’t recommend Willy’s Hi-Fi enough.

Thanks again.

These tweeters were intended for a replacement to some old Peerless Dt100 range . The face plate diameter difference would have caused some issues here though . In the end after some REW testing the units ended up partnering a pair of excellent M16NH in a Tannoy V4 rebuild . Baffle diffraction issues on the original build suggested better alignment on the narrower baffle and in they went . Cross over was a simple 2nd order at 2.2 K and voila a very nice sounding box . Measuring the tweeter tends to beam a little at 6 to 7 K and rolls off at 12 K plus but impedance measures ruler flat 6 ohm rising slightly at CO and past 10K . Give them some nice components in the signal line and the stage and imaging is spot on . Absolutely no difference in measurements in the pair gets a thumbs up for QC. No stings , no smearing , sound is spot on for the money and waterfall looks really good too. Recommended for slight off axis placement and if you can drop the tweeter back a tiny bit to align. Another great value for money offering .
