Order and delivery was a very pleasant process, I loved the hand written 'thank you' for my order on the delivery/packing note from Will and Caroline😎
Ordered this tweeter as replacement for Monitor Audio Silver RS6 TRS-025. Only slight resizing of the cabinate hole required, the original fixing holes required no adjustment, fitment took aprox 10 minutes per box.
No crossover adjustment made, some say a 1ohm resister in series might be required...personal choice.
The sound, wow, compared to the Monitor Audio TRS-025 which by comparison sounded like music was eminating through a cardboard muffle, i now have open and clear top end. Tremendous improvement. Vocals are placed accuratly, general sound stage makes for a new exciting listening pleasure.
Crossover improvements will follow, upgrading to quality components, but as a first stage, this change is phenominal.
The Monitor Audio Silver RS6's are very happy being driven by my old Quad 34/306. Thanks Will and Caroline, i will be back.
Thankyou for your review Rob !

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!
The foam grill covers of my Mission 770s crumbled into dust many years ago. Only recently was I able to find what I thought would be a suitable replacement. Everything about the process went smoothly. The foam cut easily, looks good and, to my ears , is audibly transparent.
well packed, fast delivery, simple procedure
