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 !

Ordered two of these tweeters on Friday afternoon NZ time, amazingly they had arrived in Auckland the following Tuesday morning, arrived in my home town of Christchurch couple of days later and were promptly installed. Seem to be doing and sound as they should, thank you for your service!
Excellent service well packed and very happy with tweeter after the work had been done.
Definitely would use again
Excellent advice once again from Will so helpful. Bought and installed I was a bit apprehensive about soldering direct to the terminals including the speaker terminals but took my time and with the guidance of will these have transformed my speaker's to a completely different level. Detail clarity is outstanding brings out subtle Nuance's. I'm so glad I replaced my existing crossovers with these they are better than I could have imagined and are excellent value.
Thanks again for outstanding service.

I am a big fan of the linn range of speakers , particularly the Keilidh and Kaber models . They are well designed and extremely well constructed. Anyone thinking of taking the step on this tweeter upgrade I would say do not hesitate.! I have a passive pair of Kaber with the 3bar Linn mk2 tweeters and these are generally accepted as a decent improvement over the early ceramic versions. These OW02 Hiqufon went into my active pair of Kaber and they are in a different league in my opinion!! I am a returning customer to Willys Hifi and always get great service, items arrive on time and well packaged. Thanks for being the go-to website when it comes to thinking about my next project or upgrade! Regards Ianpop.
