HD-3P Kit-1
The Audax HD-3P tweeter was a piece of exotic, visionary engineering from the 1990s. Fundamentally a piezo tweeter, it featured a gold spattered elliptical diaphragm formed onto a nitrogen filled balloon. Technically / sonically brilliant but fatally flawed due to gas loss and barometric pressure changes, many are now defunct with low or no output. Full details of this tweeter can be found by clicking the link below:
We offer a replacement kit for the HD-3P featuring either the Scanspeak D2905-9500 or D2904-9500 tweeter and custom built crossovers; each crossover / tweeter combination is matched and aligned to the specific application. You will need to remove the HD-3P crossover / transformer; the Scanspeak tweeters are supplied fitted with a unique 100mm faceplate and are a drop in fit, no carpentry required.
Supplied as singles or pairs, please make your selection at the top of the page. We hand build the crossovers to order, please allow a lead time of 7 working days.

I've needed something like this for years, fantastic product and a lovely company to deal with. Won't be my last purchase from them
It was a nice experience to send the old filters to the UK (from the Netherlands) and get them surprisingly fast back (taking the overseas shipment into account). At first I did it wrong since I also replaced the drivers that could also be connected in a 4/6 Ohm (double coil). But after correcting and calibrating my receiver the speakers sounded great.
Thanks!
Used in a DIY LS3/5a project, with Morel CAT 298 tweeters and custom crossovers using ClarityCap CSAs. Super pleased with these woofers! I think they synergize well with the “live” thin-wall LS3/5a cabinets. The sound is neither bloated, nor thin, just revealing, spacious, and with very lifelike tone. I’m so happy with the results of this project and had a great buying experience with Willy’s. Thank you!!
I used this in custom LS3/5a speaker enclosures along with Monacor SPH-135AD woofers and custom crossovers using ClarityCap CSAs. The tweeters have a very pure sound, revealing microdetails and having a naturally smooth, response. The sound is never peaky or rough. I’m very happy with my purchase and with the service from Willys. Would buy from again for a future project!
I bought a pair of Acoustic Research AR28LS speakers back in 1985 for £129 ! After about 15 years the foam suspension had started to perish and completely failed in 2006 following a rather loud teenage party. I was never happy with the Eminence Beta-8A replacements bought from a local shop at the time, as the bass resonance was far too high. Finally decided to replace them with Monacor SPH-8M and the speakers now sound as good as new. Arrived quickly and no problems fitting. Many thanks.
